odri_bolt_robot is a repository that enables controlling and simulating the Bolt robot from the [Open Dynamics Robot Initiative] through the ros2_control infrastructure.
It allows to have bolt displayed through rviz, provides the access to the ros2_controllers.
The most notorious is joint_state_broadcaster which provides the topic /joint_states for free.
It is then possible the node robot_state_publisher to have the TF-2 tree of the Bolt robot and to display it on rviz.
We provide also a gazebo plugin in order to simulate the robot in the famous Gazebo simulator.
The install procedure is described in details here.
doc - a set of tutorials to start, calibrate and launch Bolt.
position_velocity_effort_gain_controller - a ROS2 package in which is implemented a simple controller that enables to send position, velocity, effort and gain commands to the robot, with the specific hardware interface.
odri_bolt_bringup - contains files that enable to launch Bolt within its GUIs, and with it hardware interfaces and controllers.
odri_bolt_description - contains files necessary to describe, create and visualize Bolt with Rviz and Gazebo. It stores URDF-description files, rviz configurations and meshes for the demo robots.
This repository relies on the ros2_hardware_interface_odri which is a ros2_control driver for the ODRI board.
