p.loadURDF("r2d2.urdf", flags=p.URDF_USE_IMPLICIT_CYLINDER)
allow to enable/disable deterministicOverlappingPairs through an API
p.setPhysicsEngineParameter(deterministicOverlappingPairs = False)
Use btCylinderShapeZ for URDF cylinder, instead of converting it to a btConvexHullShape.
Implement PyBullet.getCollisionShapeData
Extend PyBullet.getDynamicsInfo / b3GetDynamicsInfo, remove flag (don't rely on API returning a fixed number of elements in a list!)
Extend PyBullet.getJointInfo: add parentIndex
render the inertia boxes in examples/pybullet/examples/quadruped.py and examples/pybullet/examples/reset_dynamic_info.py
fix an issue where the original margin (0.04) was used to compute the inertia, instead of latest margin
example to call b3VisualShapeInformation from C# and marshall b3VisualShapeData (after loadURDF)
See examples\pybullet\unity3d\examples\NewBehaviourScript.cs
pass events (keyboard, mouse, vr controllers etc) to the plugin, and clear them after the tick callback, so that it doesn't interfere with Python 'getEvents'
add option to recompute forward kinematics, to be consistent with link velocities in pybullet.getLinkState (..., computeForwardKinematics=0/1), thanks to Jeff Bingham for bringing up this inconsistency
This is in C++ and the sync runs at the simulation speed (240 Hz), so there is less lag than in Python.
Modify the pybullet/examples/vr_kuka_setup.py at the end to do this:
plugin = p.loadPlugin("e:/develop/bullet3/bin/pybullet_vrSyncPlugin_vs2010_x64_release.dll")
controllerId = 3
p.executePluginCommand(plugin ,"bla", [controllerId,pr2_cid],[50])
* Add the calculateJacobian method to the pybullet API.
* Adjust the shared memory interface to handle fixed/floating bases
in the calculateJacobian method.
* Fix a few comments.
Add preTickPluginCallback/postTickPluginCallback
User pointer for b3PluginContext, to store objects (class/struct instances)
Pass ints and floats as optional argument for plugin executePluginCommand
See quadruped.py for an example:
p.startStateLogging(p.STATE_LOGGING_GENERIC_ROBOT, "genericlogdata.bin", maxLogDof = 16, logFlags = p.STATE_LOG_JOINT_TORQUES)
Thanks to JulianYG, in pull request https://github.com/bulletphysics/bullet3/pull/1273
pybullet/C-API, expose linear/angular damping
fix some warnings (param name needs to be same in .h and .cpp)
fix potential startup threading issue (args were deleted in main thread while still possibly use in child thread)
fix for spinning/rolling friction in case of mixing maximal and reduced coordinate btMultiBody+btRigidBody
pybullet.changeVisualShape(obUid,linkIndex,specularColor=[R,G,B]) and Bullet C-API b3UpdateVisualShapeSpecularColor
Bug fixes in b3ResourcePath::findResourcePath resolution.
add stadium.sdf and roboschool/models_outdoor/stadium assets https://github.com/openai/roboschool/tree/master/roboschool/models_outdoor/stadium
minor fixes to obj2sdf
Bullet C-API b3ChangeDynamicsInfoSetSpinningFriction/RollingFriction/Resitution
b3PhysicsParamSetRestitutionVelocityThreshold, / pybullet.setPhysicsEngineParameter restitutionVelocityThreshold:
if the velocity is below this threshhold, the restitution is zero (this prevents energy buildup at near-resting state)
pybullet restitution.py example.
example:
kuka = p.loadURDF("kuka_iiwa/model.urdf")
p.getNumJoints(kuka)
pybullet.addUserDebugLine([0,0,0],[0,0,0.1],[0,0,1],trackObjectUniqueId=2,trackLinkIndex=6)
pybullet.addUserDebugText("tip", [0,0,0.1],textColorRGB=[1,0,0],trackObjectUniqueId=2,trackLinkIndex=6)
Also allow to render text using a given orientation (instead of pointing to the camera), example:
pybullet.addUserDebugText("tip", [0,0,0.1],textColorRGB=[1,0,0],textOrientation=[0,0,0,1], trackObjectUniqueId=2,trackLinkIndex=6)
Add drawTexturedTriangleMesh, for drawing 3d text.
Expose readSingleInstanceTransformToCPU, to extract position/orientation from graphics index.
updateTexture: allow to not flip texels around up axis
pybullet.setPhysicsEngineParameter(enableFileCaching=0)
Allow VR camera tracking only using position tracking, no orientation tracking (use
pybullet.setVRCamera([posX,posY,posZ],trackObjectFlag=0 or pybullet.VR_CAMERA_TRACK_OBJECT_ORIENTATION)
Expose this ChromeTraceUtil logging to C-API: start/statelogging and submitProfileTiming
pybullet.submitProfileTiming, and STATE_LOGGING_PROFILE_TIMINGS used in startStateLogging
added example for Python profileTiming.py and C++ b3RobotSimulatorClientAPI::submitProfileTiming
For example: URDF_USE_INERTIA_FROM_FILE flag. By default, URDF2Bullet will re-compute the inertia tensor based on mass and volume, because most URDF files have bogus Inertia values.
Add several MSVC optimization flags to cmake.
Bump up VERSION because serialization format changed
Expose btScalar& jointMaxForce, btScalar& jointMaxVelocity to 'getJointInfo2' API, add backwards compatibility to examples\Importers\ImportURDFDemo\URDFImporterInterface::getJointInfo.
pybullet: expose 4 more fields to getJointInfo: jointLowerLimit/jointUpperLimit/jointMaxForce/jointMaxVelocity
fix performance issue in CMD_ACTUAL_STATE_UPDATE_COMPLETED
implement friction anchors, position friction correction, disabled by default. Use colObj->setCollisionFlag(flag | CF_HAS_FRICTION_ANCHOR); See test/RobotClientAPI/SlopeFrictionMain.cpp. In URDF or SDF, add <friction_anchor/> in <contact> section of <link> to enable.
PhysicsServer: properly restore old activation state after releasing picked object
btMultiBodyConstraintSolver: disable flip/flop of contact/friction constraint solving by default (it breaks some internal flaky unit tests)
add missing 1.sdf for Bullet/data/kitchens/1.sdf
add support for getting keyboard events (pybullet.getKeyboardEvents and b3RobotSimulatorClientAPI::getKeyboardEvents)
