Moves block collision origin for Pick and Place #70

Closed rethink-imcmahon closed 8 years ago

rethink-imcmahon commented 8 years ago

The IK Pick and Place demo's block was constantly rolling, making it difficult to grasp repeatably. This commit moves the Collision and Visual origin to be the same as the Inertial origin. This prevents the block from interacting with the table properly, frequently rolling off the table.

Additionally, this commit changes the block pose default to spawn with respect to the world frame, as the /base frame of baxter will not necessarily exist when "roslaunch" invokes both the simulator startup and the IK pick and place demo.
