[vtkusers] real-time simulation

[Patrick Bergeron]

Hi Shayan, 

At 5 ms per frame, you're looking at 200 fps for the display.

VTK can certainly compute 7 matrices quickly enough.

The real question is, can the geometry of your robot be displayed at 200 fps just as-is? That depends more on the complexity of your geometry and your model than VTK's ability to compute 7 matrices.

I would certainly give VTK a try. It sounds like VTK would be a good fit for this.


Patrick.

    hi, 
    i`m totally new to vtk and at the moment, i`m stuck in library
    configurations...
    i would like to know if vtk allows real-time simulation. im coding in c++
    and im going to simulate an inverse kinematics of a 7-degrees of freedom
    robot. by real-time i mean, applying translation and rotation as soon as i
    give the inputs.

    im attaching a picture, not sure if its gonna work, but here is the
    scenario:
    
    im generating inputs using PLC every 5ms or my inputs are going to be via
    joystick, then i want to move the robot as soon as VTK receives it. PLC has
    interface with C++ and im coding in C++ for VTK as well. any help would be
    appreciated
