PAL Robotics | TIAGo - Whole Body Control Package

PAL Robotics presents the TIAGo Whole Body Control Package, describing a framework for controlling complex robots.

In this talk

  1. 0:08

    Control with prioritized tasks

    Whole Body Control uses online inverse kinematics and a stack of tasks with different priorities. The framework is intended to simplify control of complex robots.

  2. 0:35

    Built-in and custom tasks

    The task stack includes defaults for respecting joint limits and avoiding self-collision. Developers can add custom tasks, enabling applications such as robot teleoperation.

  3. 1:10

    Move the gripper interactively

    An interactive marker lets an operator move TIAGo's gripper. During the movement, Whole Body Control respects joint limits and avoids self-collision.
