Demonstration code
The following are various use cases and operation result videos. You can copy the code for use or modification (the robot arm model used in the following cases is MyCobot280RDKX5 280. The parameters of different series of robot arms are different. Please pay attention to the modification).
Note: The corresponding baud rates of various devices are different. Please refer to the information to understand their baud rates when using them. myCobot RDK X5 serial is /dev/ttyS1
