Revision history [back]

drcsim only provides for joint control via JointCommands or AtlasCommands topics
(note:current 2.5 requires changing out of BDI stand mode as described in latest tutorials; 2.3 starts in joint position control mode).

You will need to use some sort of IK to map Cartesian pose to desired joint positions. The ROS arm_kinematics is a reasonable place to start.
