You can now use Shadow Robot hardware with ROS! Engineers at Shadow Robot have been busy building a ROS stack and have now reached their first release. This initial release includes an interface to both simulated and real hardware, which means that, whether or not you have a Shadow Dextrous Hand of your own, you can use your ROS software to see the Shadow hand move inside of ROS tools like rviz.
To get started, you should check the Shadow Robot ROS FAQ or checkout the Launchpad site.
