/hand_controller/joint_trajectory: message documentation (joint_trajectory_msg)

This topic is used to send a sequence of positions to each motor of the joints. An example to set the fingers to different positions using command line is shown below:

ros2 topic pub /gripper_controller/joint_trajectory trajectory_msgs/msg/JointTrajectory "header:
  stamp:
    sec: 0
    nanosec: 0
  frame_id: ''
joint_names: [hand_thumb_joint, hand_index_joint, hand_mrl_joint]
points: [{positions: [0.1, 0.1, 0.1]}]"

List of all available ROS actions

• /arm_controller/follow_joint_trajectory

  Moves the arm joints to the desired positions

• /arm_left_controller/follow_joint_trajectory

• /arm_right_controller/follow_joint_trajectory

• /gripper_controller/follow_joint_trajectory

  This action encapsulates the trajectory_msgs/JointTrajectory message

• /gripper_controller/increment

  Moves the gripper joints the desired increment

• /head_controller/follow_joint_trajectory

  Moves the head joints to the desired positions

• /head_controller/increment

  Moves the head joints the desired increment

• /head_controller/point_head_action

  Moves the head joints to the necessary positions to point to a desired position, performing inverse kinematics

• /joy_turbo_reset

• /play_motion2

  Allows executing simultaneous trajectories in multiple groups of joints.

• /safe_arm_controller/follow_joint_trajectory

  Moves the arm joints to the desired positions providing there are no self-collisions
