UR16e ROS Driver Support

ROS

Hi @jbm,

I don’t see any support for the 16e in the Github repository. Will that be added?

Basically, the biggest thing missing is the description missing on universal_robot/ur_e_description at kinetic-devel · ros-industrial/universal_robot · GitHub.

I’ll have a look at this.

I started working on that, but it doesn’t have the highest priority for me, currently. Mesh extraction and reduction takes up a lot of time for me, as I am no expert in that field. Therefore I cannot give an estimate on this, currently.

Fair enough, thanks for the reply though.

We’re still interested in an ETA on this issue.
