Hey, @haixuanTao i found that those urdf that have the mesh file referenced as But some are not working, like ur5, I am not sure what the actual reason behind that is, since the resolved path seems to be correct. |

Ok, so unfortunately I am not able to replicate your error. I have pushed a commit that in theory should help with loading the robot description. Maybe you could try a second time if you have time? |

I checked my system, the problems i faced were due to old version of the robot_descriptions pkg, after upgrading it. the examples are working correctly |

Ok very cool! Thanks for checking. I did pushed couple of things on robot_descriptions |
In order to make debugging easier, I have made it possible from multiple node to retrieve the urdf given the robot_descriptions handler example:
so_arm101_descriptionthis makes it easier to download and load them at runtime.I have added example within
examples/urdfIf you have time, I would love if you could take a look: @ShashwatPatil and try the examples.
