Summary:
Melodic in Kinetic:
- MG recommends having a separate TF publisher
- Robert is using Melodic in Kenetic
industrial_moveit
- Stomp is useful
- The collision detection has been integrated
- Constrained IK is not building
- Dave proposes adding STOMP to MoveIt!
- This makes sense as all
- The plan is to separate out the STOMP code into a separate repository
- There is a question as to whether ROS-I or ROS-planning will keep the new repository
- Action item: ROS-I folk will discuss internally and get back to us
Tesseract
- Made changes to the planning scene for convex and non-convex hulls
- Managed to use Bullet for collision checking. This is useful for getting accurate signed distances
