#ROSDevCon19: CHESS LAB by CARLOS ROSALES

A chess board with simplified pieces marked with aruco markers, two UR3 arms equipped with two robotic grippers, and two realsense cameras. The combination of the robotic components is very common in universities and research center. The use of markers allows having a simple but comprehensive sense-plan-actuate example with external sync (one player must wait for the other to finish the play to move), for educational or challenge purposes.

This tutorial aims to:
How to set up different robots in simulation using ros-controls
How to use and create custom gazebo_ros plugins
How to optimize the simulation from the model point of view
Tips on using namespaces and launch files
