MoveIt! Robot Perception Open Class
What you will learn in this Open Class
In this class, you will learn how to add perception to the grasping of an object. On the previous Live Class, we learned how to move the robot arm to a fixed location. In this class, you will learn to find the location of the object and then move the arm to that location. To find the location of the ball we will use ROS perception.
In this class, we'll learn:
- How to detect the ball using the camera
- How to compute the location of the ball
- How to provide the ball location to the moveit_commander, to make the arm move to that specific location and grasp the ball
Robots used in this class:
- Smart grasping system by Shadow Robot
