A couple years ago I bought a scara bot just to play with. No serious plans, just a learning platform for things like ROS, FreeCAD robot workbench and machinekit on a deeper level. I can now control it like a CNC machine but that's not what I want. Maybe I want to do something silly like sort coins or pick out blue legos. I understand conceptually how ROS works but ROS learning curve is a bitch so getting from concept to actually controlling the robot is going to be a process. Now that I can control it in Machinekit like a CNC, how do I start connecting it to ROS? What's realistically possible with the current state of machinekit? My questions are probably newbie which is why I was looking for blogs and examples to study. Here's a link to my blog with a video I made a couple weeks ago: http://sliptonic.com/lenny-the-big-dumb-bot/ Sorry OP, I didn't mean to hijack this thread. Feel free to split it out or I'll start a new thread. -- website: http://www.machinekit.io blog: http://blog.machinekit.io github: https://github.com/machinekit --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Machinekit" group.
