Quick Start
- Install ROS 2 development tools
sudo apt install ros-dev-tools
- Create a workspace, clone, and install dependencies
source /opt/ros/humble/setup.bash
export FRI_CLIENT_VERSION=1.15
mkdir -p lbr-stack/src && cd lbr-stack
vcs import src --input https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lbr-stack/lbr_fri_ros2_stack/humble/lbr_fri_ros2_stack/repos-fri-${FRI_CLIENT_VERSION}.yaml
rosdep install --from-paths src -i -r -y
[!NOTE] FRI client is cloned from fri and must be available as branch, refer README.
- Build
colcon build --symlink-install
- In terminal 1, launch a mock setup via
source install/setup.bash
ros2 launch lbr_bringup mock.launch.py \
model:=iiwa7 # [iiwa7, iiwa14, med7, med14]
[!TIP] List all arguments for the launch file via
ros2 launch lbr_bringup mock.launch.py -s
- In terminal 2, visualize the setup via
source install/setup.bash
ros2 launch lbr_bringup rviz.launch.py \
rviz_cfg_pkg:=lbr_bringup \
rviz_cfg:=config/mock.rviz
Now, run the demos. To get started with the real robot, checkout the Hardware Setup.
