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)
