Bullet simulation for SBR robots
Project description
# qibullet
__Bullet-based__ python simulation interface for __SoftBank Robotics'__ robots.
## Installation
The following modules are required:
* __numpy__
* __pybullet__
The __qibullet__ module can be installed via pip, for python 2.7 and python 3:
```bash
pip install --user qibullet
```
## Usage
The following snippet demonstrates a simple use of the qibullet module:
```python
import time
import pybullet as p
import pybullet_data
from qibullet import PepperVirtual
if __name__ == "__main__":
physicsClient = p.connect(p.GUI)
p.configureDebugVisualizer(p.COV_ENABLE_RENDERING, 1)
p.configureDebugVisualizer(p.COV_ENABLE_RGB_BUFFER_PREVIEW, 0)
p.configureDebugVisualizer(p.COV_ENABLE_DEPTH_BUFFER_PREVIEW, 0)
p.configureDebugVisualizer(p.COV_ENABLE_SEGMENTATION_MARK_PREVIEW, 0)
p.setRealTimeSimulation(1)
p.setGravity(0, 0, -9.81)
p.setAdditionalSearchPath(pybullet_data.getDataPath())
p.loadMJCF("mjcf/ground_plane.xml")
pepper = PepperVirtual()
pepper.loadRobot([0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 1])
joint_parameters = list()
pepper.subscribeCamera(PepperVirtual.ID_CAMERA_BOTTOM)
# Retrieving an image that can be displayed via an imshow function from
# openCV
img = pepper.getCameraFrame()
while True:
# Setting joint angles
pepper.setAngles("HeadYaw", 0, 1.0)
time.sleep(0.2)
pepper.setAngles("HeadPitch", 1, 0.6)
time.sleep(0.2)
pepper.setAngles(["HeadPitch", "HeadYaw"], [0, 1], 0.6)
# Moving the robot's base
pepper.moveTo(1, 1, 0, frame=PepperVirtual.FRAME_ROBOT)
pepper.moveTo(-1, -1, 0, frame=PepperVirtual.FRAME_ROBOT)
# Checking for self collisions
pepper.isSelfColliding('l_wrist')
pepper.isSelfColliding(["RForeArm", "LForeArm"])
```

## Troubleshooting
### OpenGL driver
If you encounter the message:
> Workaround for some crash in the Intel OpenGL driver on Linux/Ubuntu
Your computer is using the Intel OpenGL driver. Go to __Software & Updates__, __Additional Drivers__, and select a driver corresponding to your GPU.
