Hi Coppelia thanks for the response

I unfortunately overwrote the previous file when I assumed it wasn't something I could do in V-REP, so I am not sure which of the problems it was.
If there is a demo scene with such a functional door please let me know what its called.

Tried swapping out the phantom hand with a barrett hand, get somewhat ok results with picking up a cube. Now I'm trying to pull a door open by attaching a cylinder to the door (i have tried both revolute/ prismatic joint) and pulling the cylinder. The door is on a revolute hinge. Unfortunately pulli...

Tried setting texture on both the gripper and shape (now changed to a cube) to 'high friction', and i can sort of move the cube around by sliding it across the floor now, but if i try to pick it up the gripper just lets it go. Have tried various values of gripper joint to close it more/less and the ...

After experimenting with a few things, it looks like I can test for the rotation of a door knob and then set a flag allowing for the rotation of the door joint, or not allowing otherwise. I have a new problem now, when trying to get the PhantomXPincher to grasp onto a cylinder and pull on it, it jus...

Hello all, I want to test gripping on an object like a handle which I can turn and then pull on to open a door, but can't find anything in the model directory, the "manual door" has a slider but the handle doesn't appear to do anything. Is there a model with this sort of feature and if not...

I also tried just using the precompiled library and just directly compiling the plugin, but it seems there is a difference between win_ros building and catkin building. I confirmed by trying to build the simple test program for ROS here http://wiki.ros.org/catkin/Tutorials/CreatingPackage but i get ...

To do it completely by the book i used the precompiled libs and VC2010 Express, with 32bit python. All seems to go ok until the linking stage and I get this linking error involving boost. However I have extracted boost libs to the correct place. Currently Stuck. rospack.cpp.obj : error LNK2019: unre...

Attempting this myself, not sure how far I'll get but I'll log the steps involved in case someone else wants to follow. 1. Downloaded and installed everything here http://wiki.ros.org/win_ros/hydro/Msvc%20Compiled%20SDK 2. Confirmed roscore works and the test listener/broadcaster works 3.[Not requir...

I have the same setup (ROS on a virtualbox running Ubuntu, main OS windows). Did you make any progress on this?
