Collada Export

Post by Schindler »

Hello,

I have a question to the collada export:
What I want to do is to export a running simulation to a collada file via the "Export animation". I expected to receive a 3D movie similar to the one the videorecording function in v-rep produces. But if I import the collada file generated by v-rep into Blender the time information seems to be lost and a I see a cuboid on many positions in the room. What is my mistake?

Thanks for your help

Hello,

I think you are doing everything right, the time information might be missing in the plugin. Each frame is assigned an individual sceneID, but currently no time information.

Hi,

Is it possible that V-REP can export URDF/COLLADA robot model? How?

I tried to export one with V-REP Collada plugin export function. But when I load it with ROS MoveIT Assitant, it said "not a valid robot model".

Hello Fulin,

the Collada exporter will not export a robot model. It will just export a collada file, which basically is just a CAD file.

Cheers
