Hi. When I use a phantom onmi pen and call hd.get(hd.POSITION) what are the units returned? Is the measurement relative to the start position of the pen? Also, what are the units of force and torque reported?

Thank you!

There are not really units for the position. When you scale the space you define the boundaries and set values to those, and the position follows from that. As far as torque and force, Vizard reports what the Phantom Omni is sending so you'll have to refer to their documentation to find out what the units are.
