Importing and Creating your own model about openrave_models HOT 1 CLOSED

OpenRAVE reads COLLADA 1.5, but most 3D software out there will produce COLLADA 1.4. Your error message says the COLLADA version is invalid, so most likely your file is 1.4... (Note: ".dae" is the file extension for the COLLADA format.)

Some things that you can do:

• If you can write your robot in OpenRAVE XML directly, that's the best.

• Note that the Save() function of your openravepy.Environment object allows you to save your whole environment to a COLLADA 1.5 file. That's how I usually export my models from Blender to OpenRAVE:

  • Export your model to VRML
  • Load it with env.Load("model.wrl")
  • Save it with env.Save("model.dae")

• If you prefer to use URDF, you may try out the or_urdf plugin. It didn't really work out when I tried a while ago, but maybe it can work for you.

Hope this helps!
