Package Summary
A super-simple tool for letting a person position the arms manually, by simply pushing the arm to the location that want. Without this tool, users are often stuck tweaking joint angles in a script, or holding the arm steady while hitting keys to freeze the arm.

Bring up the robot
As with all applications, you must first bring up your robot.
Launching
Launch the mannequin mode:
roslaunch pr2_mannequin_mode pr2_mannequin_mode.launch
Now you should be able to move both arms and the head around, and they should stay put after you let go.
