Problem with Import/Export Urdf

Post by pme1976 »

Hello.

I have trouble when I export/import model to urdf file. I take a simple model, export it to an urdf file, and then import the urdf file into CoppeliaSim to check the correctness of the export. Sometimes, the position of the joint changes. It seems that the joint frame is simply attached to the frame of the child body without taking into account how it was located before. Has Anybody ideas? For example you can experiment with FrankaEmikaPanda model.

Hello,

indeed, it seems there is a problem with either the importer or the exporter. But my guess is that the exporter is broken. We will look into this in the coming days. Thanks for mentioning this.

Cheers

I have the same problem with the 4.4 version:
The joint position is the same as the parent frame.
