You can use the SofaHAPI plugin with the Force Dimension haptic device |
|
thanks so much! I will take a look at it. |
|
You may run into some errors while compiling the SofaHAPI plugin. If you do, let me know, and I'll be happy to try to help |
|
Hi Cranium. Sorry, this may sound like a dumb question, but do you know where I can download the code for SofaHAPI? I cannot find a link on the sofa website. Also, while trying to install HAPI, the CMake configuration process was a bit weird. Before installing HAPI, I have the force dimension SDK zip file extracted on my system, and all the demo runs fine with the device. However, when I was configuring cmake for HAPI, this line popped up Thanks so much. |

Hi @HiroakiYo, feel free to ask me any questions. The SofaHAPI is already included in SOFA. I was able to find a video that shows its configuration with CMake: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q_TLeklpgs0&ab_channel=SimonNguyen. I haven't seen this video, but I think the steps are correct. For the HAPI plugin, I'm using the H3D API from: https://h3d.org/, to configure it with the SofaHAPI plugin. |
Alternatively, you can find the installation instructions on this page, https://www.sofa-framework.org/community/doc/plugins/usual-plugins/hapi/ |
|
For additional guidance, I will let the main developer of the ForceDimension plugin about your discussion guys 😉 |

Hey @polyakovkrylo 👋 |

Hi Vladimir. Thanks for writing the force dimension plugin. I am currently trying to connect an omega 7 to my sofa scene. However, I could not find a good direction about how to do this. Do you mind sharing a bit more about how to configure the plugin and how to connect the device to a soft python script? |
|
Ohh @HiroakiYo, there's the force dimension plugin by @polyakovkrylo. I never tried it before but I'll be happy to try it soon and share my feedback! Thanks, @hugtalbot ! |

Hi Leo,
Thank you for reaching out! Could you tell me which version of SOFA you are
using?
Best regards,
Vladimir

I am running sofa v21.12.00 on my Linux virtual machine via VMware Workstation 16 Player. I know the virtual machine has some delay when communicating with omega 7. Does that matter? |
|
I have just realized you are using the repo that is slightly outdated. I moved the project some time ago on gitlab (https://gitlab.com/polyakovkrylo/forcedimensions). Could you check that one out? It contains a short instruction regarding the build process. Let me know if you need more input -- I can provide an example scene in python. |
|
Thanks so much for the link. I just took a quick look at it. The instruction looks like an in-tree build for the plugin. Since I already have SOFA installed on my end, is there a way to build the plugin out-of-tree, without having to rebuild SOFA again? |
|
Unfortunately, the project can only be built in-tree at the moment and I don't have the time to update it yet. Still, even if you have a build of SOFA, you can re-configure it, add the plugin and rebuild. That way, only the plugin will be compiled, which should not take much time. |
|
That should not matter as long as you're able to run the
ForceDimensions SDK examples. I apologize the repo is a mess, the
actual version of it is on the v20.12 branch. I have never tried to
build it against v21.12, but in principle, it should not be a problem.
Let me try it out and get back to you, OK?
Best regards,
Vladimir

any update @HiroakiYo @polyakovkrylo ? |
|
Hi @hugo! I am looking forward to hearing from @HiroakiYo :) |
|
Sorry for the delay. My program has ended, but if I have the chance to continue working on it this fall, I will provide more updates. |
|
@hugtalbot, could you also update the link on the marketplace? The project is on gitlab now (https://gitlab.com/polyakovkrylo/forcedimensions). Thanks in advance. |
|
done 👍 @polyakovkrylo |
|
Hello @polyakovkrylo , could you write me a sample python scene to use with your force dimension plugin please? |
|
Hello @xiaoyun199 ! I added a sample xml scene to the repo, which should be a good point to start. Do not hesitate to contact me if you have problems translating that code to Python. |
Uh oh!

Hi all. I saw a plugin developed for Force Dimension Haptic Device, but the GitHub page just has a bunch of source code and no description. Does anyone know where to look for relevant information for the code or how to use the plugin? Thanks!
