Hello,
i just got started with V-rep, i did the bubbleRob tutorial and i wanted to implement the same functionality of the bubblerob
with a force sensor that records the force of collision of the robot with the cylinders instead of the proximity sensor, i have tried attaching a force sensor to the front of the robot but i could not get any force recordings upon collision.
here is my scene:

the force sensor is not being dynamically simulated, how do i make it record the force of collision?
Thanks,

Re: Using force sensors to measure collision force
Hello,
since your force/torque sensor is not dynamically simulated, it will not operate as expected. Make sure to carefully read this page. You will have to attach a non-static shape to that force sensor. Similar to the two sliders you have in the back (if you try to read those force sensors, you will be able to measure something).
Have also a look at the demo model Models/robots/mobile/dr12.ttm
