PathPlanning interface

Post by zon »

Hi ,

I new to the library.

I need to use the motion planning and i was wondering if it is possible to create Motion planning object throught the API. If yes, i don't find any API functions to be able to do it programmatically.


Thx.
Laurier

Hello Laurier,

currently you cannot create new motion planning objects via the API: you will have to prepare the parameters and object via the GUI. This is most of the time good enough, unless you need to do motion planning on some generic mechanism.

When you prepare a robot model, you can also directly prepare its motion planning object, that will be attached and saved together with the model. When loading the model, the motion planning object will then become available. In release V-REP 3.1.1 there is a small bug affecting the motion planning object attached to models: they can be loaded with a wrong object name. This was corrected and will be available in next release (V-REP 3.1.2).

Cheers

You can get the corrected V-REP PRO EDU library (i.e. V-REP 3.1.1 rev. 2) here:
