Creation of URDF model

URDF (Unified Robot Description Format) is the format used to define the model of the arm (xml) in order to simulate it in gazebo. It consists of a tree of geometrical elements (links) plugged through joints(joints). This joints can be fixed or mobile, the mobile joints can be rotating, linear or floating.

First, we will create a new package with the necessary dependences for our programs (urdf brazo_fer std_msgs sensor_msgs tf roscpp). We will execute the next commands in a terminal: 

cd ~/ros_workspace
roscreate-pkg brazo_fer_modelo urdf [[Control brazo MYRAbot (bioloid+arduino)|brazo_fer]] std_msgs sensor_msgs tf roscpp

We have divided the model in three files, main file, macros file and placement file. For the main file, we will create a file named "brazo.xacro" within the folder "urdf" of the created package with the content that is shown below: 

<?xml version="1.0"?>

For the placement file, we will create a file named "brazo.urdf.xacro" within the folder "src" of our package with the content that is shown below: 

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<robot name="MYRAbot-arm"
       xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"
       xmlns:gazebo="http://playerstage.sourceforge.net/gazebo/xmlschema/#gz"
       xmlns:model="http://playerstage.sourceforge.net/gazebo/xmlschema/#model"

	<link name="world" />

</robot>

Model analysis

As we have used xacro in order to simplify and to make the code more editable, we will execute the next commands in a terminal in order to obtain the URDF file processed: 

roscd brazo_fer_modelo
cd urdf
rosrun xacro xacro.py brazo.urdf.xacro > brazo.urdf

We will execute the next command in a terminal to check the model: 

rosrun urdf_parser check_urdf brazo.urdf

We must obtain something similar to the following: 

robot name is: MYRAbot_arm
---------- Successfully Parsed XML ---------------
root Link: world has 1 child(ren)
    child(1):  base_link
        child(1):  hombro_link
