[ros-users] New packages and tutorials for Webots simulator

[David Butterworth]

Hi all,

I've created some new packages for using the Webots simulator with ROS:
http://www.ros.org/wiki/kaist_webots

webots_run
Allows you to start Webots directly from a ROS launch file.

webots_joy_demo
A new version of the Webots joystick teleop demo, using the C++ API.

webots_controllers
Currently contains only a simple P controller with joint state 
publisher. The controller configuration is specified in a yaml file, 
making it easy to test new robot models.


Any suggestions or corrections are appreciated.


Regards,

David Butterworth.
