Welcome to the homestri-ur5e-rl repository! This repository provides a Mujoco Gymnasium Environment designed for manipulating flexible objects using a UR5e robot arm and a Robotiq 2F-85 gripper.
The key features of this repository are:
-
Mujoco Simulation: The repository contains an example Mujoco XML configuration featuring a UR5e robot arm with an attached Robotiq 2F-85 gripper. This setup allows the robot to interact with a flexible cable in a simulated environment.
-
Gymnasium Integration: The environment is seamlessly integrated into the Gymnasium framework and comes with a graphical user interface (GUI) that visualizes the Mujoco simulation. This GUI provides an interactive way to observe the robot's actions and interactions.
-
Controller Variety: The UR5e robot arm offers multiple controller options, enabling various modes of control, including:
- Joint effort controller
- Joint velocity controller
- Joint position controller
- Operational space controller
-
Teleoperation: For manual control, keyboard input is supported, allowing teleoperation of the robot in task space. This can be particularly useful for specific tasks that require direct human intervention.
Please note the following details about this repository:
-
Maintenance and Status: This repository is not actively maintained and should be considered experimental. It was created during the initial stages of learning Mujoco.
-
