Can we define waypoints of Path Generator node programmatically without using teach pendant?

Sataz

Hi, to simplify our operator's end user experience, our team is thinking of developing a simple interface app (in Windows) that will guide our operator in selecting the waypoints for the 6-point path generator. We intend to record the pose of the 6 points in memory and after that transfer those pose to the robot program. Is there any way for us to access the waypoint variables in the path generator using Python with socket comm? Or is it possible to create a XML RPC server with functions that can be called to provide the coordinates to the generator? Or can we modify the generated script files in any way to achieve this?

Thank you!

Unfortunatelly there is no possibility to set waypoint of multipoint path via script. I will forward you demand to our development teach to drive next developments.

Thank you.

Hi bcastets, may I check if there is any timeline for this feature request to be incorporated? So that I can indicate in our project plan. Thank you!

bcastets

as fare as I know have no plan to implement this feature at the moment.

Sataz

ahh i see. May i also check if it is possible to access through ROS? or it is just strictly not possible?
Thank you!

No possibility to do that via ROS.
