MJPC for parallel manipulators #310

Closed ahip88 closed 7 months ago

ahip88 commented 8 months ago

I recall that Mujoco wasn't made with the intent for parallel manipulators. Is this still true? Stewart platforms with MJPC take a very long time for converging to a certain pose/acceleration. Model-free RL works fine however (with Mujoco) so I'm unsure if it's something with my setup (cost etc.) or something more inherent to the simulator when using MPC. Advice appreciated. Thank you!
