[Question]: How to control gripper in simulation on Locobot wx250s? #49

Question

Hi, I am able to control locobot gripper by ssh-ing into NUC and running the following: from interbotix_xs_modules.locobot import InterbotixLocobotXS locobot = InterbotixLocobotXS("locobot_wx250s", "mobile_wx250s") locobot.gripper.open() locobot.gripper.close()

We are able to control the gripper in the real world, but how can we control the gripper in simulation? The MoveIt Package does not work for the gripper.

For reference, here is the link to our git: https://github.com/armlabstanford/collaborative_robotics_course/tree/main/me326_locobot_example

Thank you!
