Question about collision for Hand model(bones)
 
Hello.

I'm using Hand model with patriot(Polhemus).

I have tried some methods for hand model collision because I want the hand model to grab object.
But when I try to apply collision, I get error messages every time.

My method is like this....
Code:

hand=viz.add('hand.cfg')
(get bones :bone01~bone16)
bone01=hand.getBone('bone index 1-2')
.
.
.
bone16=....

bone01.collideMesh()
.
.
.
bone16=...

Then, I run the code and errors always appear. But I can hardly understand errors written in English.

Please give me ideas about that.

Thank you for reading.

I have solved the problem by myself.
Thank you.

But I've got another question.
When I use .collideSphere, the command usually work great. But when I change the scale of the node(especially, when I make the node small), collideSphere doesn't work.

For example,,,
ground=viz.add('shpere_ground3.ive')
ball=viz.add('white_ball.wrl')
ball.setScale(.1,.1,.1)
ball.setPosition(0,.5,0)
ball.collideSphere()

In this case, collision doesn't happen(ball falls down through ground). But if I change the scale of the ball(I make the ball bigger like [2,2,2]), collision can be seen.

What is the reason for this? Please give me some advice.

Thank you for reading.

Vizard uses the ODE physics engine and we have noticed that it has problems computing collisions for very small objects. I would suggest avoiding using small scales on physics objects if possible.

Hi, thank you for your advice.
Fortunately, to avoid using small scales is not big problem for me.
I will try with big scaled objects.

Thank you very much.
