Converting real world maps to a robot environment

Post by osm3000 »

Hello,

See this video from web0ts simulator people
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=102IbjXkg2k

from the video description: "This video present simulation environments and tool for simulation of vehicles in Web0ts robots simulator. It includes an interface with SUMO (Simulation of Urban MObility) and an a tool to convert par of map from OSM (OpenStreetMap) into Web0ts world."

It could be really cool to have such a feature.

Cheers,

Omar

Hello Omar,

this can certainly be done with a plugin. This is currently not our focus (we focus more on an industrial environment), but we can assist you in that task if needed.

Hi, Omar and Coppelia:
This is really a great discussion on such cool desired functionality of V-Rep of importing OpenStreetMap data
Now sure whether there is any new update on this discussion.

Or if there isn't new update yet, could Coppelia share us any existing similar scene importing plug-in (not for OpenStreetMap if there isn't), so anyone who has similar OpenStreetMap interesting can do something based on recommended example?

Hello,

Cheers
