1 About Python
Q: Are sample tutorials for Python API available?
- A: Currently there is a demo. There is a test code in the Test folder of github. You can execute it with the terminal. https://github.com/elephantrobotics/pymycobot/tree/main/demo
2 About ROS
Q: How do microcontroller-based and microprocessor-based robotic arms run ROS?
- A: We are currently using Ubuntu for the microcontroller-based robotic arm. We need to download a virtual machine to build a virtual environment and install the Ubuntu system in the virtual environment to run ROS. You can also develop your own ROS. The microprocessor-based robotic arm comes with a ROS environment and can be used directly.
Q: Can the microprocessor-based robotic arm be connected to a PC to use ros and moveit?
- A: The current open source data does not have direct communication control. It can be implemented by modifying the existing node files through ros + socket.
Q: Can you provide rviz model files and programming examples?
- A: It is provided on our github. https://github.com/elephantrobotics/mycobot_ros
Q: When running the slider control and model following commands of ros, why is the error init() takes exactly 2 arguments (3 given) reported?
- A: The pymycobot library is not installed and started.
Q: When using ROS, why is the robot arm angle inconsistent with the model angle after opening the rviz model?
- A: It is likely that the zero position of the robot arm is not calibrated, and the zero position of the robot arm needs to be calibrated.
