needle insertion
Posted: 13 Sep 2017, 10:12
hi guys,
I'm working on a simulation where a needle, located at the end effector of a kuka LBR4+, try to operate an insertion over a tissue.
I'm ok with moving the robot and I approximated the needle with a cone primitive shape. Still I don't know how to simulate a perforation, I need the needle to be inserted inside an object in order to simulate an insertion on the skin, then fat, then muscle.
Is there a way to modify the properties of an object? Is there a way to perform a perforation over an object?
Hope the question is clear, thanks a lot!
