Hi everyone,
I am pleased to announce that a ROS stack for the control of our Adaptive
Robot Grippers <
http://robotiq.com/en/products/adaptive-robot-grippers/> is
now available. The stack is released as part of
ROS-Industrial<
http://rosindustrial.org/>,
hosted on the SWRI repository.
The Robotiq stack <
http://ros.org/wiki/robotiq> provides drivers for
accessing the control variables of our Grippers (TCP/IP protocol only for
the moment), allowing ROS users to program high-level commands without
having to handle low-level message creations and communication aspects. The
objective of the stack is to reduce the integration time and help our
research partners build innovative demos (such as this
one<

).
For more information on the Robotiq stack, you can take a look at our blog
article<

announcing
the release and our
website<
http://robotiq.com/en/applications/advanced-robot-gripper.php>
section
presenting the research applications for our Adaptive Grippers.
Please let me know if you have any question!
Enjoy!
