Installation

1. Install ROS2 and ros-dev-tools (tested on Humble with Ubuntu 22.04)
2. Create a ROS2 workspace and source the overlay

source /opt/ros/humble/setup.bash # change humble to your ROS2 distro
mkdir -p ~/ros2_ws/src
cd ~/ros2_ws/src
git clone https://github.com/reazon-research/openarm_ros2.git

1. Install dependencies with rosdep and build the packages with colcon

cd ~/ros2_ws
sudo rosdep init
rosdep update
rosdep install --from-paths src -y --ignore-src -r

sudo apt install -y python3-colcon-common-extensions
colcon build

1. In a new terminal, source the workspace setup script

cd ~/ros2_ws
source install/setup.bash

1. Test the installation by launching a demo. It may be necessary to restart your computer once.

ros2 launch openarm_bimanual_moveit_config demo.launch.py
