Даниил Грабарь 79d88db930 Add documentation for KUKA Sunrise features and programs
- Created a new document for the Station interface, detailing its menu structure, process data, safety functions, frames, and smartPAD function buttons.
- Added a document for RobotPowerControl, explaining its purpose for safely shutting down or restarting the KUKA Sunrise Cabinet controller.
- Introduced ServerFriRos2 documentation, outlining its role in establishing an FRI connection between the KUKA LBR iiwa and a ROS 2 computer.
- Documented the TeachKuka application, which allows manual teaching of the KUKA LBR iiwa, including position capturing and trajectory recording.
- Added an overview of Sunrise Workbench, including installation instructions for Windows and Linux.
- Created a section on installing a Windows compatibility tool (PortProton) on Linux.
- Documented the installation process for SunriseWorkbench on Linux using PortProton.
- Added installation instructions for SunriseWorkbench on Windows.
- Created troubleshooting documentation for configuration errors and SSL errors during installation.
- Implemented a hook to generate the shared PDF only during the default-language build.

Simulation (Webots)

!!! info "Work in progress" A detailed simulator guide is being prepared.

Webots is an open-source robot simulator. LWC uses it as a digital twin of the KUKA LBR IIWA 7, allowing control algorithms to be developed and debugged without a physical robot.

Key features

  • The simulator uses the same ROS 2 topics and interfaces as the real robot.
  • The simulation world is set in cobot-setting.yamldigital_twin.webots.world.
  • Start it with cobot run --simulate.

Differences from the real robot

  • There are no real safety constraints, so motion can be faster.
  • Physics is approximate, including inertia, friction, and elasticity.
  • FRI is not used; communication goes through the Webots ROS 2 driver.
