Hi Kevin,
Yes, I did this on a PR2 robot.
When this error was reported, I checked in ROS using
rosrun pr2_controller_manager pr2_controller_manager list-joints
and saw the r_gripper_joint was there in the list.
I will go and double check my procedure in the lab first thing tomorrow
morning.
Thank you very much! That will be a very useful pipeline!
Hao
