For anyone interested in #FOSS and #robotics, I've started working with #ROS and #Gazebo simulator to model an Arduino Braccio arm.
I put together a package with everything needed to simulate pick+drop of an object. https://github.com/lots-of-things/braccio_moveit_gazebo
also wrote a little post about the https://bonkerfield.org/2020/08/braccio-moveit-gazebo/
I've also got part of the pick+drop working in real life too. And packaged that code up separately
