Some reasons the arm occasionally fails to launch do to it hanging on the xtion.
- Try unplugging the xtion and plunging it back into different USB ports, killing the launch files and relaunching them.
If these fail
- Try launching the arm directly with
roslaunch kinova_bringup kinova_robot.launch kinova_robotType:=m1n6s200 kinova_robotName:=mico_arm
Overall the arm is very finicky so try these things a few times.
If it looks the arm is going to collide with anything, just put your hand in front of it to prevent it from moving.
If the arm falls catch it and try to place it in a balanced position. Turn off the robot and charge it, and try to home the arm again.
