issue in “reuleaux"

[zjy0818]

Hello, there are several questions about reuleaux that I would like to ask:

1. I use Ubuntu16.04, ROS Kinetic, my robot has two 7-DOF arm robots, I use your kinetic-branch, https://github.com/jontromanab/reuleaux/tree/kinetic-devel
   I catkin_make it ok，but I getting the following error when loading the map:
   HDF5-DIAG: Error detected in HDF5 (1.8.16) thread 140584366880640:
     #000: ../../../src/H5D.c line 460 in H5Dget_space(): not a dataset

       Major: Invalid arguments to routine
       Minor: Inappropriate type
   Bus error (core dumped)

IK-FAST can also solve the inverse kinematics of the 7-DOF manipulator using analytical methods, and I have been using IK-FAST until now, so I don't think it is a problem with my robot.
libhdf5-dev is already the newest version (1.8.16+docs-4ubuntu1.1)

2.I try to use here
https://github.com/jontromanab/reuleaux_moveit,
but I don't know how to use this package. Can you provide a detailed tutorial? Thank you very much.

@zjy0818 Starting from the visible error, it seems the database never got created.
It is due to the fact that Reuleax can only support 6DOF robots for now. I did not get time to add support for 7DOF.
Yes, IK-FAST supports more than 6DOF, but we have to define the free index. It was just never implemented. You are welcome to implement it if you are interested. I will more than happy to help.

About using the reuleaux_moveit, I cannot guarantee proper support for it, as the package was created for a very experimental reason. You are also welcome to work on that, if you like. All the help will surely be provided.

Thank you. Sorry for the trouble.

@jontromanab Thank you for your reply.

I read your paper, which says that we can use KDL, reuleaux_moveit is the KDL used? I see this package has been successfully applied to PR2 robots. Now I want to try it on my dual-arm robots, Because the PR2 robot is also a 7 DOF dual-arm robot. But I don't know how to use reuleaux_moveit package to create and load maps， it looks different from reuleax. Can you tell me the steps of this package?

Thank you very much indeed

[jontromanab]

yes, Reuleaux_moveit generally uses KDL which is really slow. We can use ikfast with reuleax_moveit too. We had implemented reuleaux on lots of robots (not with two arm though) It will not be suitable to discuss about another package here. Please shoot me a mail. I can surely help you.

Hello, I'm trying to make reachability map of 7dof manipulator, PANDA from FRANKA EMIKA.

Is it still impossible to create reachability map of 7dof manipulator?

Any commit is updated or sth?

@jkw0701 I'm bit stuck doing the same. Have you perhaps resolved the problem?
