7 Commits • 2 Features
Jul 1, 2025In July 2025, contributed to agimus_controller with a set of impactful updates that improve visualization fidelity, robustness, and hardware compatibility, delivering tangible business value for simulation, testing, and deployment workflows. Key features delivered include enhanced MPC plotting and plotting utilities, with a dedicated MPC plot node, data loading/processing from ROS and ROS2 bag files, and configurable time steps and end-effector visualization; this also included simplifying the plotter usage for daily engineering work. Franka (Panda) robot model support was added by updating the model creation logic to accommodate new URDF/SRDF files, broadening deployment options. Robust agimus_msgs handling was implemented by introducing field presence checks and sensible defaults to prevent crashes when fields are missing. Saturation constraints were refactored for performance gains and extended error messaging to cover an additional robot type, improving reliability and diagnosability under load. These changes collectively reduce debugging time, enable richer MPC visualizations for planning and verification, and extend the system’s compatibility across ROS1/ROS2 ecosystems.
