# Summary

The `LBR-Stack` is a collection of packages that simplify the usage and extend the capabilities of KUKA's Fast Robot Interface (FRI) [@fri]. It is designed for mission critical hard real-time applications. Supported are the `KUKA LBR Med7/14` and `KUKA LBR IIWA7/14` robots in the Gazebo simulation [@gazebo] and for communication with real hardware. A demo video can be found [here](https://www.linkedin.com/posts/mhubii_robotics-opensource-ros2-activity-7009974676017848320-S3U5/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop). An overview of the software architecture is shown in Figure \ref{fig:fri}.

The first original contribution of this work is to add support for the `KUKA LBR Med7/14` robots, which, to the best author's knowledge, does not exist in any other work. The second novel contribution of this work is to provide Python bindings. This work solves the maintainability by outsourcing the FRI into the separate **fri** package, which leaves the FRI's source code untouched and simply provides build support. 4. is solved by defining an IDL message to KUKA's `nanopb` command and state protocol buffers in **lbr_fri_idl**. These messages can then be interfaced from ROS 1/2 topics or from the ROS 1/2 hardware abstraction layer.
