I have encountered a problem when using ros bridge to control a kuka robotic arm. It works perfectly when I add the robot usd and create the action graph from the interface. But when I create everything in python from “examples” it turns out that the topic joint_states that it subscribes to is incorrect even though I can’t find any difference.
Working example:
Problem:
Note: I have noticed that very occasionally it picks up the right joint states and moves slightly in the right path.
Thank you in advance.
Hi @dmoren21 - Someone from our team will review and get back to you.
Hello, I managed to solve the error. It seems I was subscribing and publishing to /joint_states topic. This somehow worked when loading the robot manually but was so bad when running it from a standalone example.
To make it work with kuka robot I created a new launch file and python script (and cmake and xml files) in isaac_moveit package for the kuka arm (based on this Franka tutorial: 10. MoveIt Motion Planning Framework — Omniverse Robotics documentation)
