In Python, how can I get current robot pose?
I am trying to automate the movment in z-axis of the robot tcp as it moves in the x and y axes. For this I am using a camera; which measures the distance to the surface. The aim is to remain the camera at the same distance while the surface area varies; when the robot is moving (X and Y).
I am trying to get the robot position using the following script but the result is encoded and as much as I try to decode it, I can’t get it.
import socket
import time
HOST=“192.168.1.12”
PORT=30002
s=socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
s.connect((HOST,PORT))
s.send(“get_actual_TCP_pose()”.encode())
position=s.recv(1024)
print(position)
print(bytes(position).decode())
How do i take the the Z position in order to compare with the distance which is reading the camera?
Hope someone could help me,
Thanks!
