Read point cloud content with sim.getPointCloudPoints and write to text file:

Wether you can directly set the joint position or not depends in which joint mode and control mode the joint is.

Paths starting with . are only available from associated code.

It is correct to use sim.moveToConfig. You can use a 1-dimensional config, starting from {0} , ending in {1} , which would be the parameter for interpolation between an initial and a final config/position/pose. To interpolate between 2 joint positions you can use (1 - config[1]) * initialJointPos + ...

try running in Xvfb? that would use software rendering

If you don't need to use a cyclic joint, simply selecting a joint range larger than 2*pi is enough to make the joint turn more than 1 full revolution when setting a large enough target position (via sim.setJointTargetPosition). If instead you are forced to used a cyclic joint, the solution is to use...

It is explained in the manual:

Actually, even better (and faster) than that, you can set the vision sensor render mode to "color coded handles", then each object is rendered with a unique color corresponding to its handle. Then you can go through all pixels and decode which object it relates to ( handle = unsigned int i...

You can achieve something like selective rendering by setting the vision sensor to explicit handling, then adjusting visibility layer of all objects before/after rendering to only "see" the interesting objects. Depth map gives you something almost resembling a binary map (simply apply some...

When the robot is outside the linear guide (in the tree), paths are found that lead to the desired location. When I place the robot inside the linear guide (on the tree) the positions found from there no longer coincide with those intended. I don't really understand any of that; but usually, when s...
