Using MAGIKS on a Windows System #3

Open Viren-Patil opened 3 years ago

Can this module be used on Windows System? If yes what would be the steps for installing the crlibm library?

Hi Viren,

Thanks for showing interest in MGIKS. Unfortunately, I have changed my field to Data Science and am no longer supporting the package. It was for my PhD project more than 5 years ago, so you are on your own to find out how to use it from the code and documentation.

At that time, MAGIKS worked better than the existing IK solvers. Especially, compared to moveit, it generated smoother and better trajectories, so it might be worth using it.

We always used to use it on Linux but there is no reason it should not work in windows.

Dr. Xun Wang (https://www.linkedin.com/in/xun-wang-604a9213/) is still working in the robotics area and might be able to help you with pyRide if you want to run real-time with a robot or in simulation.

Best Wishes Nima

I may add that the following bio-inspired IK works very well (however, I have no idea about windows support): https://github.com/sebastianstarke/BioIK https://github.com/TAMS-Group/bio_ik

Otherwise, TRAC-IK also works very well: https://bitbucket.org/traclabs/trac_ik/src/master/ Someone seems like made it work for windows: https://github.com/kokkalisko/trac_ik_for_windows

I'd try to work on linux, though!

Good luck.
