Design, build and program robot cells in Virtual Reality.
Hello my fellow Robotics enthusiasts!
I am pleased to announce that custom model importing functionality is now live! This particular feature has been a dream of mine for some time. You can now import models as scene props and workpieces. Robot tooling is still being worked on. There is a training screen in the World Building room to the right as you walk in that describes the different features of model importing. Basically make sure to place your origin in a good location on the model, set the scale properly and set the rotation to use Z as the up axis.

The next major feature I will be adding is the ability to export program points in a suitable format for use in other applications. I will also be addressing some of the "clunkiness" and refining the controls a bit more.
