Hubo+ Model released

Starting with version 0.5.0, the improved Hubo+ robot has been modeled and included in the huboplus subfolder of the repository. As of now, the model has accurate kinematics, and has about 60% of massive parts included in the mass/inertia calculations. DASL is working to include miscellaneous massive parts such as the main power board, motor controllers, cabling, etc. Within a week of the initial release, we expect to have a 95% mass-accurate model uploaded, which should have the same kinematic structure and joint order.

Joint Sequence Changes

The new Hubo+ model is not necessarily backwards compatible with the original Hubo2 model in terms of joint order:

  • Each arm has lost the wrist roll (LWR/RWR) joints, reducing the total DOF of each arm to 6 from the original 7.
  • Manipulators are now defined by a simpler naming scheme of <side></side>. The left arm manipulator name is therefore just "leftArm"
  • All bodies are named by the scheme: Body_, where is the 2 or 3 letter code describing the upstream joint. For example, the left leg, upper thigh body would be "Body_LHP".
