It should look like ~/catkin_ws/src/universal_robot. Don't forget to source the setup file ($ source ~/catkin_ws/devel/setup.*sh), then use catkin_make to compile. You can then start the driver with the following commands (start new terminals, don't forget to source the setup shell files): $ roslaunch ur_bringup ur5.launch robot_ip:=IP_OF_THE_ROBOT $ roscd ur_driver; ./test_move.py + +In order to start moveit! s.t. it can directly control the robot, close ur_bringup and type this: + +$ roslaunch ur5_moveit_config moveit_planning_execution.launch sim:=false robot_ip:=IP_OF_THE_ROBOT + Remember that you should always have your hands on the big red button in case there is something in the way, or anything unexcpected happens.
