Find a way to easily put the robot in a desired configuration #115

Closed traversaro closed 9 years ago

traversaro commented 9 years ago

Currently we are using the yarpmotorgui, but it takes a lot of time from being in the terminal with the joint position file available, to actually set the robot in a desired configuration (30 secs? 1 min?).

The easiest way to solve this is probably to improve the yarpmotorgui usability.

But.. what's the status of yarpmotorgui ?

traversaro commented 9 years ago

?

francesco-romano commented 9 years ago

I was meaning: is it useful? Have we tried to load a sequence in it and see how it behaves? ect..

yarpmotorgui is just the new names of robotMotorGui on yarp machine where Qt5 is not installed. For the Qt5 version, @DanielePucci did some testing.

Providing a custom 'yarpmotorgui' configuration file with a custom home seems already to be a much better solution, as suggested by @DanielePucci

Adding the yarpmotorgui configuration files in the robots-specific file of torqueBalancing is a satisfying solution for now ( https://github.com/robotology/codyco-modules/commit/b5e14dc005b5ab7d8a533d2f27aa25d984b57ff3 ), closing for now.
