I am sure the implementation is now correct, it is just not working in my scene. I am using mac OSX- do you think it could be a hotkey issue? Even though I am using [cmd +…[Read more]

I am able to move the finger in the plane now after implementing your code, but it will not close or open (bend inwards or outwards). I have had this similar problem when I tried the CableGripper/PneunetGripper SoftRobots tutorials; is it something to…[Read more]

I am not getting any results, I think I am missing something important or doing something wrong. I’ve attached a file below that contains both…[Read more]

Hi RowingMK2,

I was facing this problem last week, and have recently resolved it. I will walk you through step-by-step what I did. I roughly followed the instructions given here:

You must first export your design file in *.brep format. This will depend on the CAD software you are using; for me, I am using SolidWorks, and so I exported my…[Read more]
