Creating the MoveIt! IKFast plugin for the ABB-IRB6640 robot
We have seen the MoveIt! package for the ABB robot IRB 6640 model. But the robot is working using the KDL plugin, which is a default numerical solver. For generating IK solver plugin using IKFast, we can follow the procedure mentioned in this section. At the end of this section, we can run the MoveIt! demo of this robot using our custom moveit-ikfast plugin.
In short, we will build an IKFast MoveIt! plugin for robot ABB -IRB 66400. This plugin can be selected during the MoveIt! setup wizard or we can mention it in the config/kinematics.yaml file of the moveit-config package
Prerequisites for developing the MoveIt! IKFast plugin
The following is the configuration we have used for developing ...
