Support for Robotiq Hand-E #10

Open jeff-o opened 4 years ago

Would it be possible to add official support for the Robotiq Hand-E? From my testing, it looks like communications are the same as with the larger 85mm Robotiq gripper. But of course, the stroke is not the same, and the xacro and mesh will differ as well.

Unfourtanetly I no longer provide development support for this package. I know the communication protocols do not change, so the developed drivers of this package can be easily adapted to the new stroke sizes.

The new URDF and collisions would need to be configured, but I believe there are many other repos that already have this. The main contribution of this repo is the control through ActionClient and the simulation of the operation of the gripper.

Any PRs are more than welcome.
