Hi @epernod,

Thanks for your reply.

If drawing haptic force is not a good idea, can I export the haptic force into a file?
How can I make it in the .sce file?

Best,

Hi, @epernod. I’m also working on Geomagic Touch. And I started with the example scenes under the `application/plugins/Geomagic/scenes/xxx.scn’.

If I want to show the interaction forces between tools controlled by the haptic device and soft body (liver). How should I do it?

I tried to add a monitor component in the ‘liver.scn’, but It doesn’t…[Read more]

Yes, the needle and suture can move.
However, the error keeps printing in the console which would slow down the simulation.
What’ more, I find that the BilaterialConstraints don’t work. The needle and suture can move independently as shown in the image below.

Hi @Hugo, the image shows 404 error.

And the console image is as below

After removing the FixedConstraint, the content of my scene is

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Node name="root" dt="0.01" gravity="0 0 -9.81">
<RequiredPlugin name="SofaOpenglVisual"/>
<VisualStyle displayFlags="showBehaviorModels showForceFields showCollisionModels" />…[Read more]

Hi @Hugo. Thanks for your reply.
I’ve deleted all FixedConstraint. But the same error occurs.

Ok, all the above problems are solved by this PR (#1328).

The path of source file (system/PluginManager.cp) in set_property is not complete.
The correct method is :

# D:sofasrcSofaKernelmodulesSofaHelperCMakeLists.txt line 339
set_property(SOURCE ${SRC_ROOT}/system/PluginManager.cpp APPEND PROPERTY COMPILE_DEFINITIONS_DEBUG "SOFA_LIBSUFFIX=_d" )


Then, SOFA_LIBSUFFIX would be defined as -d.

But what…[Read more]

Hi @Binesh, you can download the obj file here

Thank you very much!

Hi @hugo, I am really excited to receive your reply. I would appreciate that if I have an opportunity to cooperate with you about suturing simulation.

Indeed, suturing simulation is a complex project. I’ve read some related papers of Christian Duriez and Prof. Stephane Cotin. I find that the animation loop (FreeMotion Loop) was already…[Read more]

I think hugo is clear about your question in his first answer.
The surface mesh is just a triangle mesh. According to this plugin, the force filed is BeamFEMForcefield for the blood vessels simulation. Thus, you don’t have to create tetrahedron mesh.

Hi @Sarah, thanks for your reply.

1. I can load a scene which is only defined in a python file like houseOfCards.py in directory applications/plugin/SofaPlugin/examples/.

2. I add the plugins in the warning log using rootNode.createObject('RegquiredPlugin', pluginName='...'), but the collision is still not work. And I want to know How can I find…[Read more]

@Hugo I’m still confused about creating scene using python scripts.
I have three questions.
1. Is it necessary to create a .scn file for each scene?
2. Do I have to set RequiredPlugin in a .scn file?
3. In a python scripts like houseofcards.py， it starts from createScene(node) other than createScene(sofa.PythonScriptController). Is it o…[Read more]
