Sensor Drivers
The Guardian robot could be equiped with a laser for receive the information about its environment. For Hokuyo and SICK laser drivers, see laser_drivers.
Note: In the simulation, we suposed that this laser is a Hokuyo URG-04LX.
Guardian Mobile Manipulators
To run this modifications you need to download and compile previously some additional packages.
G-WAM (Guardian + Barret WAM Arm)
