Hello,

I am trying to write my diploma thessis. I would like to simulate a pick and place robotic arm. I am facing a lot of issues. I cant find any tutorials, about the gripper, the robotic arm movement etc.
Could anyone help me a little bit?

Thank you,
Vaggelis

Hi,

the manual is your friend.

It is true there aren't many tutorials around to do specific things. This is mainly because once you got the basic concepts, it is very easy to create more complex behavior by composing simpler things.

Make sure to have a look at the included example scenes and also study how some models work (e.g. especially grippers: those are typically documented inside their script, since not all gripper models work in the very same way).

Models of robotic arms already define IK, but should you want to also see how to implement that part, there is a tutorial about IK.

thank you very much!
