At Clearpath Robotics, we've been wanting this tool for a while. I would definitely contribute to this project as making URDF non-visually is a pain in the ass.

Looks like this suite covers all of the ideas we talked about here. Good work!

Subject: [ros-users] Phobos @ ROSCon ?

 

Hi everyone,

it has been almost a year since I first mentioned Phobos on this list, a tool to build robot (URDF) models in Blender, developed at the University of Bremen / DFKI Bremen. We've come a long way since then and hope to soon start working on a number of issues less specific to our purposes and more universally relevant for working with URDF.
You can find Phobos on GitHub: https://github.com/rock-simulation/phobos

So I was wondering if there is enough interest for this topic that people would like to hear more about it at ROSCon in October and whether a talk would be the right format or if something like a Birds-of-a-Feather session might be more useful for people.  So, please let me know your thoughts, I'll try my best to make it to ROSCon with a bundle of helpful input for everyone.

Cheers,

Kai
