ROS-based remote controlled robotic arm workcell

摘要

This paper describes robotic workplace that is being developed at our faculty. It consists of industrial arm Mitsubishi Melfa RV-6SL, gripper Schunk and six Axis cameras. The purpose of this workplace is to serve students for testing algorithms from artificial intelligence and computer vision. It also gives them the opportunity to work with real industrial manipulator and allow them to test things like kinematics and dynamics of the arm. The arm is inaccessible for students so it can be operated only remotely. The software needed for remote controlling and programming is described in this paper.
