I use Ubuntu 16.04, kinetic and try to launch Talos in Gazebo 7.16

Talos comes up with no problems.
When i try to execute
roslaunch talos_controller_configuration_gazebo default_controllers.launch
the walking_controller does not start.

I get
ERROR: cannot launch node of type [walking_utils/walk_pose]: walking_utils
....
[ERROR] [1591559317.327340, 1818.587000]: Failed to load walking_controller

and from gazebo:
[ERROR] [1591557570.790961238, 958.537000000]: Could not load controller 'walking_controller' because controller type 'walking_controller/ReemcControl' does not exist.
[ERROR] [1591557570.791228728, 958.537000000]: Use 'rosservice call controller_manager/list_controller_types' to get the available types

This is not an issue ! Everything is in the title.

Hi guys,
We are interested in starting to use the description for planning and unit testing - and being able to install it directly from binaries would be fantastic.

We are very happy to help with release etc. if desired.

Best wishes,

Dear PAL developers,

we are currently calibrating the 6D position of each joint wrt its parent. At the moment, talos_description_calibration only allows to calibrate an offset for the joint axis.

In order to deploy the result of our calibration, I need to be able to update the URDF. Is is possible to extend this to the full 6D pose of each the joints ? If it is, do you have the resources to do this or do you prefer that I propose my own implementation of this ?

Hi guys,

I understand that putting all these set of package is a practice that comes from PR2. However, I believe that it's better to have each package as a submodule (at least for talos_description). My argument is that we could be interesting in running only simulations with Talos.
Please let me know your thoughts!

Best,
Carlos

Hi,

We're using Talos inside our DART simulation, however, STL format is not handled properly concerning body color.
Is it possible to update your repo with the dae file as well ?
