Description
I was trying to use the
PlanningScene
Rviz display to show known collision objects, but NOT the octomap. To my knowledge, there was no way to have both. This PR adds an option to disable visualizing the octomap (see image)How to test
The easiest way I found to test is to use Universal_Robots_ROS2_Driver and a recorded bag file I took of the planning scene. That link should allow you to download the bag file
To set it up:
Now in 3 terminals:
ros2 launch ur_bringup ur_moveit.launch.py ur_type:=ur5e robot_ip:="xxx.xxx" use_fake_hardware:=true launch_rviz:=true
Under
MotionPlanning
->Scene Geometry
->Voxel Rendering
, try switching the type from the drop down menu. "Disabled" will ... disable the octomapChecklist
