Distance Units?

Hello, This is probably a very easy question to answer but I was wondering what the units for the coordinate system was in a CoppeliaSim scene. For example, if I have an object that moves from (x = -1.75, y = 0.725, z = 0.75) --> (x = -2.0, y = 1.0, z = 1.0), is that a change in meters? Or millimete...

Re: Coppeliasim 4.1 Version Inverse Kinematics

What worked for me was setting all 6 joints in the UR5 robotic arm to inverse kinematics with hybrid mode enabled.

Re: Python Remote API IK Mode--Joints Spaz Out

Okay so I figured the problem out--in the IK element settings, I disabled the orientation (alpha-beta, gamma) checkmarks and my remote API Python script works like a charm! One question is why though, considering the UR10 robotic arm has 6 degrees of freedom, shouldn't it be suited to take 6 variabl...

Re: Python Remote API IK Mode--Joints Spaz Out

To clarify, the tip does indeed follow the target when I change the target coordinates, it just doesn't do it so "smoothly"--all the joints just keep twitching. However, the fact that the joints react to changes in the target coordinates does imply some sort of connection between the tip a...

Python Remote API IK Mode--Joints Spaz Out

I'm using CoppeliaSim 4.1 and remote API connection (through Python) to control the joints of the UR10 robot. I'm using 4.1 so that I can use inverse kinematics and tip&target tracing so that the robot's tip will follow the target. The current version of 4.2 only has inverse kinematics through c...
