Hi,
Can there be an example provided on how tendons can be used in Isaac Gym? There seems to be a tendon class and everything but no example on it how it could be used.
Best,
Hi @noshaba ,
The Shadow Hand environment uses the tendons. Example here:
asset_options.default_dof_drive_mode = gymapi.DOF_MODE_NONE
shadow_hand_asset = self.gym.load_asset(self.sim, asset_root, shadow_hand_asset_file, asset_options)
self.num_shadow_hand_bodies = self.gym.get_asset_rigid_body_count(shadow_hand_asset)
self.num_shadow_hand_shapes = self.gym.get_asset_rigid_shape_count(shadow_hand_asset)
self.num_shadow_hand_dofs = self.gym.get_asset_dof_count(shadow_hand_asset)
self.num_shadow_hand_actuators = self.gym.get_asset_actuator_count(shadow_hand_asset)
self.num_shadow_hand_tendons = self.gym.get_asset_tendon_count(shadow_hand_asset)
# tendon set up
limit_stiffness = 30
t_damping = 0.1
relevant_tendons = ["robot0:T_FFJ1c", "robot0:T_MFJ1c", "robot0:T_RFJ1c", "robot0:T_LFJ1c"]
tendon_props = self.gym.get_asset_tendon_properties(shadow_hand_asset)
for i in range(self.num_shadow_hand_tendons):
for rt in relevant_tendons:
if self.gym.get_asset_tendon_name(shadow_hand_asset, i) == rt:
tendon_props[i].limit_stiffness = limit_stiffness
tendon_props[i].damping = t_damping
Take care,

HI， I want to know if i can use the tendon API, to set the contact body’s stiffness to simulate the elastic contact process?
Good day
