Inverse Kinematics Vrep

Post by Coisoecenas »

Hi.

I am using the KUKA youBot and he has already the IK group created and a code sample that works with sliders. I am trying to adapt this code to put a box on the floor, indicate the coordinates of the box and then I wanted that the arm goes to the right position.
Should I substitute directly on the array desiredPos by the coordinates of the box? What does currentPos do?
I followed the tutorial and when they say to select the target and try to move it so the tip of the arm should follow the target. It doesn't work. What am I doing wrong?

I dont need a complicate program. Just to make it work as fast as possible.

Thanks.

Hello,

about the youBot, have a look at this post.
Then, in the tutorial, if your arm is not following the target, then you must have done something wrong. At the top of the main view, does it say something like IK group handling enabled Calculations: 1(x ms) ? Are your joints in the correct mode? (i.e. IK mode)

Cheers
