What's new?

  • Added support for Universal Robots (required a new IK solver) and Motoman
  • Removed all "Accumulate Rotation" rigging nodes and "Reconcile Rotation" behavior.
    • IK solver now only solves between +/- 180 degrees each axis, and accumulation of rotation is now handled in the postprocessor.
    • No IK or FK keyframe is required to save a program
  • I/O support
  • Added new robot rigs for ABB, KUKA, Motoman, and Universal Robots
  • Improved robustness of exporting programs
  • Improved annotations, comments, warnings, dialogs throughout
  • Improved the Mimic codebase, usability, and squashed bugs throughout

What's next?

  • Support for Focus/Iris/Zoom motors
  • More tutorials and documentation.
  • Support for Communication
  • Full support for Poses and Configurations.

Important Note:

  • Due to architectural changes in the rigs, previous rig versions are not compatible with Mimic v1.3.0 and vice versa. You must download the latest version of your required rig to use with v1.3.0.

  • For installation instructions and a list of supported robots, see our README.
  • Note: the only difference between the Mac and Windows versions are the precompiled versions of NumPy we've included in each
  • To obtain more robot rigs, download a rigs archive and merge it into mimic/rigs.
  • Tutorials can be found at mimicformaya.com.
