Intelligent Robotics Lab's Projects
Boris was made to be the test bed for the PaCMan project and is now one of the robot manipulators @ IRLab, University of Birmingham
A ROS package for the DLR-Hit Hand II
A ROS/Python API for controlling and managing the Franka Emika Panda robot (real and simulated). Contains exposed controllers for the robot (joint position, velocity, torque), interfaces for the gripper, controller manager, coordinate frames interface, etc. Provides almost complete sim-to-real / real-to-sim transfer of code.
Fork of FRIL from Stanford University
<UNDER DEVELOPMENT>
Software related to the KIT Head.
Software related to the KUKA LWR 4+: for real and for simulation.
A Gazebo simulator for the Franka Emika Panda robot with ROS interface, providing exposed controllers and real-time robot state feedback similar to the real robot.
Command line tools for qbmove and hand devices
Standard Operation Procedure (SOP) documents for the robots in the lab: how to safely operate the robots at the IRLab.
