Hi everyone,

I have a URDF file of my own robot, but I don't know how to load it to RVIZ. I've googled but still don't get it.

I'm very new to ROS. Any help will be appreciated.

If there is a step-by-step tutorial, that will be even better.

Hi David! Do I create a package and put URDF in src? Where do I place the launch file?

Comment by David Lu on 2018-07-16:
Yes, both could go in a package called robotname_description.
