Now the finger inertia is set as estimation based simulation experience, not the real values. It would be really nice to have precise simulation.

Hi michtesar,
thank you very much for this initiative.

I can launch the simulation successfully
but when trying to roslaunch pepper_control pepper_control_position.launch

I get this error:
[ERROR] [1586834385.968544, 322.233000]: Failed to load /pepper_dcm/joint_state_controller
and it fails starting the controllers. have you seen this before?
any suggestions?

nvm... error was because it was conflicting with the simulation.launch
It's the first time I get all this pieces working together, like literally working!
I'm trying to navigate it, maybe i can help adding some info on how to navigate it once i figure it out!
again,thank you very much.

Hey Michael,

Thanks for creating this convenient repository.

I have an issue with both of the grippers' fingers in simulation. All of them keep spinning right from the start of the simulation, without even trying to move an arm or hand.

In order to keep them from spinning, I have temporarily set all of the fingers as fixed and not continuous mimic. Since I want to experiment with grasping, this is not an acceptable solution for me.

Do you have any solution in mind?

At this point I should highlight that I am on Ubuntu 18.04 and ROS Melodic.

Thanks in advance,

George
