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 COV_ENABLE_VR_RENDER_CONTROLLERS, to enable/disable rendering of controllers (and some frames) in VR
Expose COV_ENABLE_RENDERING to enable/disable rendering.
Fix some multi-threading issues (potential crashes), related to debug drawing/rendering in one thread, while changing the dynamics world/removing/resetSimulation in a different thread.
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
don't enable <CTRL> for hotkeys yet
add some more profile markers
log objectId and linkIndex as signed int ('i') and not unsigned int 'I'
fix issue in startStateLogging: number of parameters was wrong
Usage:
Also updated pypi to latest, see https://pypi.python.org/pypi?:action=display&name=pybullet&version=0.1.7
Here are a few options for Mac OSX + Anaconda:
1) In the root of the Bullet Physics SDK source tree, run
CFLAGS="-DB3_NO_PYTHON_FRAMEWORK" python setup.py install
2) cmake, add the flag -DBUILD_PYBULLET_MAC_USE_PYTHON_FRAMEWORK=OFF
3) Globally, just use pip or pip3:
CFLAGS="-DB3_NO_PYTHON_FRAMEWORK" pip install pybullet
Option (3) may have an out-of-date pybullet/bullet version.
pybullet setup.py / pip support for Windows, Linux and Mac! just run 'pip install pybullet' and wait until all compiled (like numpy, it is mainly source, except for a few wheels Mac 2.7 and Win32 3.5). Expose URDF_USE_SELF_COLLISION flag.
suppress lack of 'site' support message in MJCF importer
suppress lack of 'plane' visual support in urdf/sdf import
getBodyName default to "" to avoid breaking cloudsim
expose bodyName when requesting body info (sdf/mjcf import)
pass optional "options" string to pybullet.connect method. this can be used for --opengl2 flag in GUI mode (or other flags)
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
- resetDebugVisualizerCamera now accepts negative values for pitch and
yaw angles
- Defining kitchen model to be concave, so as to be able to put floating
objects inside
- Fixed an indention error in testrender_np.py
add missing 1.sdf for Bullet/data/kitchens/1.sdf
add support for getting keyboard events (pybullet.getKeyboardEvents and b3RobotSimulatorClientAPI::getKeyboardEvents)
Change SHARED_MEMORY_MAGIC_NUMBER to make sure server/client are using the same version (shared memory)
add --realtimesimulation to physics server (GUI, VR)
remove --G Xcode from build_cmake_pybullet_double.sh
tune gripper grasp example with tefal pan, 800Newton force.
URDF importer: if using single transform 1 child shape, don't use compound shape.
if renderGUI is false, don't intercept mouse clicks
add manyspheres.py example (performance is pretty bad, will look into it)
[pybullet] expose contactBreakingThreshold
[pybullet] updated pybullet_quickstartguide.pdf
Fail clearly (assert, return BT_INFINITY) if link index is out of range for btMultiBody methods localPosToWorld,worldPosToLocal,localDirToWorld,worldDirToLocal.
pybullet getConstraintInfo
Fix warnings due to Mac OSX 10.12 upgrade (with backward compatibility)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VMJyZtHQL50
added b3InitSyncBodyInfoCommand, to retrieve body info, when connecting to a server with existing bodies
pybullet will call this b3InitSyncBodyInfoCommand automatically after connecting
Avoid overriding the py.setVRCameraState setting in VR
add inverse_kinematics.py and hello_pybullet.py pybullet examples
add m_worldLinkFramePosition/Orientation fields to b3LinkState, and in pybullet.getLinkState (URDF link frame in Cartesian/world coordinates)
Windows shared memory: allow to use custom key.
Improve GUI performance on Windows, submit letters in text as a batch (fewer draw-calls)
quadruped.py: first try to connect to SHARED_MEMORY, if it fails (<0) use GUI
increase Chrome about://tracing json export capacity (press 'p' in Example Browser)
UDP physics server: add --port and --sharedMemoryKey command-line arguments
PhysicsServerExample: add --sharedMemoryKey command-line option (for VR example too)
ExampleBrowser: sleep a few milliseconds if rendering is too fast, use --minUpdateTimeMicroSecs=0 to disable
vrevent.py: add a Tiltbrush-style drawing example using pybullet
Expose getVREvents to pybullet / shared memory API, access to any VR controller state & state changes.
Improve performance of user debug lines (pybullet/shared memory API) by batching lines with same color/width
expose rayTest to pybullet/shared memory API (single ray for now)
add pybullet getMatrixFromQuaterion
allow 'useMaximalCoordinates' and 'useFixedBase' in pybullet.loadURDF.
enable split impulse for btRigidBody, even in btMultiBodyDynamicsWorld.
allow initialization of velocity and apply force for btRigidBody in pybullet/shared memory API.
process contact parameters in URDF also for btRigidBody (friction, restitution etc)
add pybullet.setPhysicsEngineParameter with numSolverIterations, useSplitImpulse etc.
add option to perform filtering of 'getClosestPoints' using linkA/linkB.
don't use 'realtimesimulation' as default
add/remove debug items within same thread
pybullet, report contact points and normal as [x,y,z] triplet/vector, not 3 scalars
separate 'getClosestPointsAlgorithm': box-box doesn't report closest points with positive distance, and the query shouldn't impact regular 'closesst points'
always pass in width, hight and viewMatrix, projectionMatrix, optionally lightDir
added helper methods computeViewMatrix, computeViewMatrixFromYawPitchRoll, computeProjectionMatrix, computeProjectionMatrixFOV
see Bullet/examples/pybullet/testrender.py + testrender_np.py for example use
add missing base_link.stl for husky.urdf
add UDP network connection for physics client <-> server.
also set spinning friction in rolling friction demo (otherwise objects may keep on spinning forever)
//Use at own risk: magic things may or my not happen when calling this API.
This allows to enable/disable robot assets (samurai world, gripper, KUKA robot etc) in Physics Server (and App_PhysicsServerVR etc)
1 = create robot assets
2 = create experimental box-vr-gui
Add optional command-line parameter for App_PhysicsServerVR, --norobotassets, to start with an empty world, no assets in VR (no gripper, no kuka)
