Overview
This package is part of the ROS-Industrial program.
Getting Started
The current binary releases of the UR MoveIt configuration packages do not install all required dependencies upon installation (see universal_robot/issues/225). Be sure to install the moveit_simple_controller_manager package in addition to those mentioned below.
To simulate a UR5 and control it in simulation, first install the necessary packages:
$ sudo apt-get install \ ros-$ROS_DISTRO-ur-gazebo \ ros-$ROS_DISTRO-ur5-moveit-config \ ros-$ROS_DISTRO-ur-kinematics
Kinetic users should then also install the following packages:
$ sudo apt-get install ros-kinetic-gazebo-ros-pkgs ros-kinetic-gazebo-ros-control
as detailed in these instructions
To launch the simulated arm and a controller for it, run:
$ roslaunch ur_gazebo ur5.launch
and in another terminal:
$ roslaunch ur5_moveit_config ur5_moveit_planning_execution.launch sim:=true
To control the simulated arm from RViz, also run:
$ roslaunch ur5_moveit_config moveit_rviz.launch config:=true
You should now be able to move the end effector goal to create a plan for the simulated arm to execute.
