Controlling a 6DOF Robot Arm with ros2_control

Blog post: https://mikelikesrobots.github.io/blo... I show the ros2_control example code for a 6DOF robot arm running in simulation, then deep dive into the code to explain how it works. I also talk about what needs to change from the example to adapt it to a real robot arm, as I plan to do in a future video. #robotics #robotarm #ros2 #ros2control ============================================ Chapter times: 00:00 Introduction 01:06 Why Use ROS 2 Control? 03:14 Examples Repository 04:49 Simulation Setup 07:06 Running the Simulation 08:31 Code Deep Dive 10:23 Controller Code 20:04 System Explanation 23:36 Changes Needed for a Real Robot 24:45 Summary ============================================ Video Links: Using I2C to control PWM | ROS Control with the JetBot Part 1:    • Using I2C to control PWM | ROS Control wit...   Building a ros2_control System | ROS2 Control with the JetBot Part 2:    • Building a ros2_control System | ROS2 Cont...   ============================================ Links: ros2_control Examples Github Repository: https://github.com/ros-controls/ros2_...
