Gripper Interface #29

Open peterdavidfagan opened 1 year ago

peterdavidfagan commented 1 year ago

Are there plans to support interfacing with the vacuum gripper via ROS and MoveIt. I might be missing something but I didn't find code for this in the existing repository.

@peterdavidfagan Thank you for your support, there is no plan to support this function at the moment, we will evaluate this work later.

Hi @vimior,

More than happy to support the use of the lite6 especially with MoveIt.

Is there any support for interacting with the vacuum gripper even through the python SDK? I have seen that the studio app provides support.

vimior commented 1 year ago

@peterdavidfagan It can be controlled through the API of the SDK or the service of ROS, but it cannot be controlled through the API of moveit for the time being.

Thanks @vimior, I appreciate your quick responses to these questions.
