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 brazo_fer std_msgs sensor_msgs tf roscppWe 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:

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.urdfWe will execute the next command in a terminal to check the model:
rosrun urdf_parser check_urdf brazo.urdfWe must obtain something similar to the following:
robot name is: MYRAbot_arm

rosrun urdf_parser urdf_to_graphiz brazo.urdfWe must obtain something similar to the following:
Visual test of the model
We will create a file named "brazo_rviz.launch" within the folder "launch" of our package with the content that is shown below in order to display the model and to check the joints:
<launch>
<param name="robot_description" command="$(find xacro)/xacro.py '$(find brazo_fer_modelo)/urdf/brazo.urdf.xacro'" />
<node name="joint_state_publisher" pkg="joint_state_publisher" type="joint_state_publisher" />
<param name="use_gui" value="true"/>
<node name="robot_state_publisher" pkg="robot_state_publisher" type="state_publisher" />
<node name="rviz" pkg="rviz" type="rviz" />
</launch>
We will execute the next command in a terminal in order to start the launcher:
roslaunch brazo_fer_modelo brazo_rviz.launchThe launcher starts rviz and the GUI of joint_state_publisher. We have to set in "Global Options" the field "Fixed Frame" to "/world" link. We can change the position of the joints using the sliders of the GUI of joint_state_publisher. We must obtain something similar to the following:
Control of the joints for simulation
We have to add a controller to each mobile joint in order to simulate the servo motors Dynamixel AX-12A in gazebo
Previous steps
We will execute the next commands in a terminal in order to install the control stacks of the PR2 robot (pr2_simulator, pr2_mechanism and [http://wiki.ros.org/pr2_controllers pr2_controllers):
sudo atp-get update
sudo apt-get install ros-VERSIÓN_ROS-pr2-simulator ros-VERSIÓN_ROS-pr2-mechanism ros-VERSIÓN_ROS-pr2-controllersTo add controllers to mobile joints
Modification of the URDF
We have to set the materials, properties, transmissions and controllers for our URDF model in gazebo.
We will add the next code lines before the tag "</robot>" within the file "brazo-macros.xacro":
<macro name="gazebo_propiedades_link" params="nombre material">

Creation of the configuration file
We have used two controllers for each mobile joint, one for velocity control and one for position control. Each controller is a PID regulator. We will create a file named "controllers.yaml" within our package with the content that is shown below in order to configure the PID regulators of each mobile joint:
base_pos_controller:
type: robot_mechanism_controllers/JointPositionController
joint: base
pid: &base_pos
p: 2.0
i: 0.5
d: 0.0
i_clamp: 10.0
arti1_pos_controller:
type: robot_mechanism_controllers/JointPositionController
joint: arti1
pid: &arti1_pos
p: 2.0
i: 0.5
d: 0.0

type: robot_mechanism_controllers/JointPositionController

We will create a file named "brazo_gazebo.launch" within the folder "launch" of our package with the content that is shown below in order to start gazebo and to load the model and the controllers:
<launch>
<include file="$(find gazebo_worlds)/launch/empty_world.launch"/>
<param name="robot_description" command="$(find xacro)/xacro.py '$(find brazo_fer_modelo)/brazo.urdf.xacro'" />
<node name="robot_state_publisher" pkg="robot_state_publisher" type="state_publisher" />
<node name="spawn_brazo" pkg="gazebo" type="spawn_model" args="-urdf -param robot_description -model MYRAbot_arm" respawn="false" output="screen" />
<rosparam file="$(find brazo_fer_modelo)/controllers.yaml" command="load"/>
<node name="spawn_controller" pkg="pr2_controller_manager" type="spawner" args="base_pos_controller arti1_pos_controller arti2_pos_controller arti3_pos_controller pinza_pos_controller base_vel_controller arti1_vel_controller arti2_vel_controller arti3_vel_controller pinza_vel_controller" respawn="false" output="screen" />
</launch>
We will execute the next command in a terminal in order to start the launcher:
roslaunch brazo_fer_modelo brazo.gazebo.launchWe can see the arm model in vertical position placed in the point xyz=(0 0 0) of a empty world in gazebo.
MYRAbot's arm model in gazebo
We will execute the next command in a new terminal in order to check that the controllers have been loaded properly:
rostopic echoWe must obtain something similar to the following, where the topic NAME_CONTROLLER/command is the set point and the topic NAME_CONTROLLER/status is the status data:
/arti1_pos_controller/command

We have to add the next line to the file "CMakeLists.txt" of our package in order to compile and create the executable file:
rosbuild_add_executable(control_modelo src/control_modelo.cpp)
We will execute the next commands in a terminal in order to compile and create the executable file:
roscd brazo_fer_modelo
makeSimulation of control programs
First we have to add the next code line before the tag "</launch>" within the file "brazo_gazebo.launch" in order to launch the previous interface program:
<node name="control_modelo" pkg="brazo_fer_modelo" type="control_modelo" />
First control program (Come here)
We use the same control program that we had created for the real arm. First we will execute the next command in a terminal in order to launch the simulator with the arm model:
roslaunch brazo_fer_modelo brazo_gazebo.launchWhen the simulator gazebo is started, we will execute the next command in a terminal in order to start the control program:
rosrun brazo_fer control_v01
