Robotiq Q&A with ROS Contributor

Over the years, we have seen a bunch of applications in many research fields, with the introduction of ROS Industrial in the robotic world, life just got easier for people who want to share their code or part of their code with other users. At Robotiq we are really happy to support and help people that want to develop these types of tools for all different kinds of applications. We would like to recognize several important contributors to the ROS package over the course of a couple of blog posts, one of them is Devon Ash from Clearpath Robotics. Devon contributed to the package mainly for simulation purposes for the different mobile manipulators that Clearpath Robotics is producing. Here is a short Q&A on Devon’s contribution to the Robotiq ROS package.
