RViz_robot_description

This package contains the description of a robot for use with ROS2. It includes URDF files and configuration files written in xacro format.

Installation

Clone this repository into your ROS2 workspace:

cd /ros2_workspace/src
git clone https://github.com/TheGotGithub/RViz_robot_description.git

Usage

To launch the robot description and visualize it, run the following command:

ros2 launch robot_description display.launch.py

To customize the robot and adjust its parameters, you can modify the URDF file robot.urdf.xacro and adjust the properties defined in robot_config.xacro.

Customizing the Robot

You can customize the robot's configuration by modifying the robot.urdf.xacro file. This file contains the main URDF description of the robot's structure. Adjusting parameters such as link dimensions, joint types, and joint positions can be done directly in this file.

Adjusting Properties

The parameters used in the URDF file are defined as properties in the robot_config.xacro file. These properties define dimensions, joint positions, and other customizable parameters. You can modify these property values in the robot_config.xacro file according to your requirements. By adjusting these values, you can easily customize the robot's dimensions and configurations without directly modifying the URDF file.
