wedge-juggler's Introduction
This directory should be installed under the Gazebo models directory (typically $HOME/.gazebo/models). Build the controller for the juggler using CMake. Then start juggling with: $ gazebo ../juggler.world from your directory used for building the plugin. -------------------------------------------------- Searching for parameters: For new physics engines- or getting existing physics working with the wedge juggler- it may take a parameter search to find reasonable parameters. Replace the text "libjuggler.so" with "libjuggler-search.so" and run the juggler as usual- except now you will tell Gazebo to use the alternative physics engine. For example: $ gazebo -e dart ../juggler.world will use the DART physics engine and attempt to find good parameter settings for the juggler. The method used is grid search, and the search will likely take several hours. Before running the grid search you will need to set two environment variables: $ export GZ_BRUTE_PARAM_FILE=params $ export GZ_BRUTE_OUTPUT_FILE=output The first line will tell the search the ranges and steps for the parameter search. The second line indicates where the evaluation results should go. The grid search will terminate Gazebo when complete. Assuming that your file is named 'output', you will likely want to sort it to find parameters that yield juggling, like so: $ sort -g -k6 -k5 < output The tail of this output should look something like this: bounce:0.10000000000000001:ball-geom mu:0:ball-geom limit:-0.27488999999999997 period:12 20000 1.71585 This means that the parameters bounce=0.1, mu=0.0, limit=-0.275, and period=12.0 yielded a juggle for 20000 iterations (the maximum used in the search) with a mean ball height of 1.71585. If the juggle does not last 20000 iterations, the ball was ejected from the juggler some time before. If the mean height for the juggle is lower- say 1.2- then the ball became trapped at the bottom of the wedge (there was no or little ballistic flight phase after some time).
