hx_robot_info bad data size

Discussion in 'HAPTIX' started by bit-warrior, Dec 29, 2017.

  1. Hello,

    I have modified the provided MPL.xml and MPL_left.xml, to mold a model with both hands in it ( i have attached the file, although it loads fine in the model). My objective is to have both hands in the model and control them using matlab. However when i run the command hx_robot_info, or hx_read_sensors i get error from mjhx "bad data size".
    mjhx('info') runs fine and provides me with the following:
    mjhx('info'), and some others work too, but i cannot control the hand.

    Thanks, and happy new year!

  2. Found out my only problem is that the number of joints is limited to 32. Right now I am trying to remake the mex file with a limit of joints/motor/sensor/imu of 100 ( such as to allow for two hands). I get the LNK2019 Error, I don't think its reading the .lib file properly or if something is missing.

    The search for truth and knowledge continues...
     
  3. I created a new mex file by running on matlab commandline "mex mjhx.cpp mjhaptix_user.lib" and it completes successfully ( in haptix.h I changed the defined max number of joints and motors). However I still get the error of "bad data size" when I run "hx_robot_info".

    The maximum sizes are already compiled in mjhaptix_user.dll. There is nothing you can do on your end to change them. All you can do is change the header file, but that does not recompile the DLL. The hx_XXX interface was meant to be a standard, designed jointly with DARPA and OSRF, and these limits are part of it. I was not too fond of the way the standard turned out, which is why I also provided the native API. It has built-in limits but they are set to 1000, so it should not be a problem.
