Re: URDF Workbench, robotics

It will probably take months if not years for me to build something usable for URDF/SDF import/export. I have a full time job, a bunch of kids, a well paying part time job ...

Compsognathus

I am teaching my 8 year old son some basic programming, mechanics and electronics, to make a "fun" project, we decided to build a 1:1 Compsognathus. Progress is a bit slow as both my son and me must be "in the mood" at the same time. The main goal here is to teach my son some goo...

Re: Gitpod, Online IDE, now opensource, provides pre-conf linux VM

I was more into the selfhosting on own hardware, that is unlimited. https://www.gitpod.io/docs/self-hosted/latest/install/install-on-kubernetes/ I am planning to buy a new PC for robotics simulation, thinking AMD 12 core / 24 thread and 32-64 GB RAM. I might donate some CPU time to the project ;) I ...

Re: How many man hours would FreeCAD need to reach feature parity with SolidWorks/SolidEdge?
