Update Scene Objects
Function
Update the pose and dimensions of the specified scene object via the vision service or parameter settings.
Usage Scenario
When running a Mech-Viz project, the position and dimensions of the scene object should be adjusted in order to avoid collisions in different situations.
Parameter Description
Update Info Source
This parameter specifies the information source to update the scene object’s pose and dimensions. The two supported information sources are Config Value and Vision Service.
Config Value
+: Add a new scene object.
-: Delete the selected scene object.
You can add or delete a scene object according to the actual requirement. The pose and dimensions of the scene object at the top of the Scene Object list will be updated first. For each item in the Scene Object list, you can select the scene object in the corresponding drop-down list and then specify the Target Pose and Target Size. The format of target pose should be XYZ (m) plus quaternions and the target size is the dimensions in X, Y, and Z-directions in meters.
For example, a target pose can be 1.00, 0.00, 0.00, 1.00, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, a target size of a cuboid can be 0.40, 0.40, 1.00 (length, width, height), and a target size of a vertical cylinder can be 0.50, 1.00, 0.00 (radius, height, 0).
Vision Name
Select the Mech-Vision project that provides the vision service. The Mech-Vision project must be a registered one.
