A motion-planning and manipulation framework for robotic arms and mobile manipulators in ROS 2.

About the Project

Why use this?

MoveIt 2 provides the core capabilities required for robotic manipulation: kinematics, motion planning, collision checking, trajectory execution, perception integration, and grasping workflows. It allows engineers to plan safe motions for arms operating around obstacles and dynamic environments.

It is the leading open-source choice for robotic-arm applications, pick-and-place systems, mobile manipulation, and research manipulators. MoveIt integrates closely with ROS 2 and Gazebo, enabling a smooth path from simulation to physical deployment.

Key Features

  • Motion planning with collision avoidance
  • Inverse kinematics and kinematic solver integration
  • Perception, octomap, and planning-scene support
  • Grasping and pick-and-place workflows
  • ROS 2 and Gazebo integration
