rr.init("demo", spawn=True)

panda = load_franka_panda()
# 7 arm joints + 1 gripper joint
panda.set_joint_positions([0, -0.75, 0, -2.35, 0, 1.57, 0.78, 0.04])

Troubleshooting

If you are having issues, try to install the most recent version of the rerun-sdk (pip install rerun-sdk -U). The APIs are mostly stable but still change sometimes. If you still are unable to get things working, please open an issue and we will do our best to help!

Last tested on rerun-sdk==0.17.0.
