Abstract
Gazebo serves as the simulation platform for the ROS industrial software suite, offering a visual simulation space for planning pathways and optimizing industrial robots. Using this environment, it is possible to simulate different types of robots including universal robots, KuKA, and ABB robots. This tutorial delves into the simulation procedures for industrial robots within ROS industrial, providing an illustration of the path planning process. It is therefore expected for the audience to learn about
- building simulation environment for the industrial robot
- forward kinematics solutions
- inverse kinematics solutions
- path planning of the industrial robots.
Keywords
Robotic operating system, Gazebo, forward kinematics, inverse kinematics, path planning
