PRISMATIC CONTROL example

Hi,
I need a prismatic control example to apply for a lifter (linear controller).
Indeed, I’m trying to convert a position (with rotation) controller of the mira robot of the TF class into a prismatic but the trick does not work.
I don’t know if I need to install some library or change the controller package, the config yaml file and so on.

Can you help me?

Thank you in advance,

Stefano

Hi @Stefano ,

You should check the URDF model in the first place (some nice ref: http://wiki.ros.org/urdf/XML/joint)

Further, adjust the ROS controller to that joint
I think you may have something in here:

It’s a quite broad question, I hope these references can help you

Regards
