Jaipal Singh (Mar 02 2018 at 13:04):Hey folks! I'm working on the mged tutorials to get myself familiarized with BRL-CAD and everything seems to be going great so far!
Jaipal Singh (Mar 02 2018 at 13:07):I'm also inclined on being a part of GSoC 2018 with BRL-CAD and wanted to work on the project on Python Geometry. From what I understand, there's already been some prior work done regarding the same (ref:gabbar1947 email). Could someone please redirect me or point to some documentation for the same that would help me get started?
Tejas Ajay Zodage (Mar 14 2018 at 13:04):Hi Everyone,
I am Tejas,
I want to work on the FreeCAD Robot workbench. The main problem that I see In the existing version of freeCAD, is that there are no constraints in the axis of the robot. that makes it follow trajectories in unrealistic ways. The robot arms overlap with each other. This can be solved by getting the values from .stl/STEP files or any other neutral 3D format. The data of the links’ surface can be used to put constrains to avoid overlap of the links.
Also there are some other bugs. As shown in the figure, when a trajectory is selected, the user doesn’t have any control over the starting position and orientation of the robot. I would like to add a feature in which the user can add initial position-orientation matrix or position the bot partially at the starting point.
I want to do this as a project under GSoC and need a mentor for that. Please message me if any mentor is interested in this area. I have a decent amount of theoretical background in robotic kinematics and will be needing help just to clarify a few doubts related to coding and writing the proposal.
