Start of the Second Semester Work

Work Done

Most of the setup available at https://github.com/afonsocastro/larcc_interface is completed. Still, I am only able to plan movements to previous or random states using rviz given that the manipulator marker does not appear.

Using the Python script available at the previous repository to move the robot, I am able to move the robot to a certain position but I still can not control the gripper. Using another script I can control the gripper but I am unable to control the robot.

Future Work

  1. Make trajectories to hard-coded object positions triggered with the terminal.

  2. When the gripper works, fetch said objects.

  3. Integrate a camera so that the robot only fetches the next object after the user stops moving the previous.
