robot_controllers_interface

Overview

The robot_controllers_interface package provides ROS messages and header files that define how robot controllers are created and managed. There are several key components:

• A ControllerManager, which manages the loading, starting and stopping of controllers.

• One or more Controllers, which actually convert ROS messages into commands to the mechanism.

• One or more Handles, which expose an API so that Controllers can pass commands to the mechanism.
