Storage of named positions #134

Open bsaund opened 3 years ago

bsaund commented 3 years ago

Currently "Named Positions" are stored in two places (as discussed in https://github.com/UM-ARM-Lab/kuka_iiwa_interface/pull/133)

There are advantages to putting in SRDF, namely it works with existing moveit/ros tools

The main disadvantage I see is the srdf notation is annoyingly cumbersome and less flexible than python

We decided to put these in the SRDF and use moveit's named position manager
