Hi,

I am learning to use openai ROS package using the fect robot example. However I am getting a hard time to make the fetch robot simulation working. I am using ROS noetic. You can find the detailed question by following link https://answers.ros.org/question/373461/fetch-robot-simple-simulation/

Any help in fixing the issue will be appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

So the setup locally could be tricky, but in theory the basic elemenstyou have to have in your catkin_ws/src are:

git clone --depth 1 -b noetic https://bitbucket.org/theconstructcore/fetch_tc.git
git clone https://bitbucket.org/theconstructcore/theconstruct_msgs.git
git clone https://bitbucket.org/theconstructcore/simple_grasping_tc.git
git clone https://github.com/mikeferguson/grasping_msgs.git
git clone -b noetic_support https://github.com/mikeferguson/moveit_python.git

Then you should launch it like so:

roslaunch fetch_manipulation_gazebo main.launch

You might need to install other packages and dpednencies, butthe base is there. This is the basic instalation used for the course of OpenAI_ROS in Noetic , so it should work.

Hi duckfrost,

I’m not able to access the ‘noetic_support’ branch in the last repo moveit_python.
I get the error “fatal: Remote branch noetic_support not found in upstream origin”

Thank you
