Hi. I am hoping to create a constraint that constrains the point of one body to a curved surface defined in another body. The surface is an ellipsoid.
I have been reading the documentation but I get the feeling that this will not be easy to implement in OpenSim. Would it be possible to implement such a constraint via the model's XML description?
If not, then can it be done via the API?
If it can be done by the API ... how? I have been looking at the OpenSim::UnilateralConstraint class but I have no idea how to implement it.
Thanks in advance
Marc

RE: Point constraint on curved surface?
Hi Marc,
Can you provide some context as to what you're trying to implement? There're many solutions including defining a Coupler Constraint or a Custom Joint.
Please let us know so that we can help you further, or point you in the right direction.
Good luck,
