Advice on how to set up new robot #63

Closed fishbotics closed 2 years ago

fishbotics commented 2 years ago

Hi all,

I'm looking into how to set up the Franka Panda with OPW. I'm new to OPW (I've most used IKFast).

  1. I'm not even sure if this robot is OPW-qualified. It's a 7-DOF robot and when I use IKFast, I fix the tool joint and then solve IK. I assume that would also work for OPW?
  2. I have the DH parameters, but not the OPW ones. Does anyone have tips on how to get started? I'll attach an image from their docs:

I almost certain you will have to use ikfast for this since it is not a spherical wrist and has 7 DOF.
