Brick.AGX python interface development
Project description
BRICK AGX
The brickagx package implements all Brick bundles such as Physics, Robotics, DriveTrain and Simulation using AGX Dynamics Real-time multi-body simulation. The package contains python bindings and native libraries needed to load and run .brick files.
Prerequisites
- Python 3.9 on Windows or OSX
- Python 3.8 on Ubuntu 20.04
- Python 3.10 on Ubuntu 22.04
- AGX Dynamics and an AGX Dynamics License
BRICK version | Required installed AGX version |
---|---|
0.0.14 - 0.0.15 | 2.36.1.4 |
0.0.16 - 0.0.26 | 2.36.1.5 |
Install
To get the version corresponding to your AGX on Windows do:
setup_env.bat
pip install %AGX_DATA_DIR%/agx-pypi
pip install -U brickagx
To get the version corresponding to your AGX on OSX and Linux do:
source setup_env.sh
pip3 install $AGX_DATA_DIR/agx-pypi
pip3 install -U brickagx
License
Usage Examples
Given the python file and brick file below, run with:
python3 inverted_pendulum.py
To just simulate the brick file without controllers, do:
brickview inverted_pendulum.brick
or python3 -m rebrick.view inverted_pendulum.brick
