Franka Description
Overview
The Franka Description repository offers all Franka Robotics models. It includes detailed 3D models and essential robot parameters, crucial for simulating these robots in various environments. Additionally, the repository provides a feature to create URDFs (Unified Robot Description Format) for the selected Franka robot model.
Features
- Comprehensive 3D Models: Detailed 3D models of all Franka Robotics models for accurate simulation and visualization.
- Robot Parameters: All necessary robot parameters for realistic and reliable simulations.
- URDF Creation: Ability to create URDF files for any selected Franka robot model, essential for robot simulations in ROS and other robotic middleware.
Prerequisites
- Docker
URDF Creation
To start the generation, execute the start.sh script. The arguments passed to the sh script will be used from the create_urdf.py.
# Start the generation of the urdf model
./scripts/create_urdf.sh <robot_id> <ee_id>
The urdf generation is performed by the create_urdf.py script which offers several parameters to customize the output urdf model:
usage: create_urdf.py [-h] [--robot-ee] [--no-ee] [--with-sc] [--abs-path] [--host-dir HOST_DIR] [--only-ee] robot_model
Generate franka robots urdf models. Script to be executed from franka_description root folder!
positional arguments:
robot_model id of the robot model (accepted values are: fr3, fp3, fer, none)
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--robot-ee id of the robot end effector (accepted values are: franka_hand, cobot_pump)
--no-ee Disable loading of end-effector (robot-ee would be ingnored if set) [WARNING: this argument will be removed in future releases, introducing "none" as ee id].
--with-sc Include self-collision volumes in the urdf model.
--abs-path Use absolute paths.
--host-dir HOST_DIR Provide a host directory for the absolute path.
--only-ee Get URDF with solely end-effector data
Visualize via ROS2
franka_description
is offered as a ROS2 package.
The urdf file can be visualized via RViz with the following command:
# visualize_franka.sh launches the visualize_franka.launch.py in a ros2 instance running in the docker container
# The arguments given to the .sh script are forwarded as launch arguments
# Accepted launch arguments are:
# arm_id - accepted values are: fr3, fp3, fer
# load_gripper - accepted values are: true (default ee_id is franka_hand), false (ee_id will be ignored) [WARNING: this argument will be removed in future releases, introducing "none" as ee id]
# ee_id - accepted values are: franka_hand, cobot_pump
./scripts/visualize_franka.sh arm_id:=<robot_id>
