How to move the robot with torques? #19

Closed acxz closed 5 years ago

acxz commented 5 years ago

Hello, I have recently started working on a project with a Summit-X vehicle. We would like to control the robot with torque controls on the wheels. I understand how to send velocity commands to the wheels, but we would like to have control over the torques.

Is there a specific rostopic that I need to publish on in order to achieve torque control? I have tried to locate it, but I am at a loss. If anyone can show me how to move the robot using torque controls instead of velocity controls it would be much appreciated.
