🙋 [OPEN] GUI for MuJoCo Visualisation #6
Description
What is the priority?
Low (Nice to have, but not critical).
What would we like to have?
The MuJoCo simulation executable (initiated with ./simulate scene.xml) launches a window with a GUI for interacting with the robot (via the Control panel), and other simulation functions:
It is also possible to move the camera around by clicking on the screen.
This current ROS2 package launches a bare window with just the 3D visualization. It is completely non-interactive:
What is the immediate benefit?
- Interact with and manipulate the robot
- Change camera angle for better view without altering parameter files
- Test robustness of robot to perturbations
- Change physics & algorithm properties on a whim
- No need to shut down ROS2, change config files, and relaunch
What implications will it have?
This will save a lot of time, and make it faster to implement & test controllers.
