OmniGibson v3.9.1: More Stable Model Downloads and Performance Tuning

Why it mattersImproved stability of model downloads from Hugging Face, added PyTorch thread count configuration, and fixed R1Pro robot velocity frame issue.

OmniGibson is a 3D environment platform for robot simulation and interaction. v3.9.1 improves model downloading from Hugging Face for more stable resource access; adds PyTorch thread count configuration for performance tuning; fixes the R1Pro robot base velocity frame issue; and updates demo documentation.

What changed

  • Updated Hugging Face model download method for improved stability
  • Added constant options for PyTorch thread count to control parallel computing resources
  • Edited sponsor information in index.md
  • Fixed R1Pro robot base velocity frame (qvel) issue
  • Updated demo documentation
  • New contributor hirobon1690

dm_control 1.0.44: Physics Engine Upgrade, Adhesive Contacts & Conveyor Effects

dm_control 1.0.44 updates the physics engine MuJoCo to 3.11.0 and introduces several new features. You can now simulate adhesive contacts (contacts that pull like magnets) and conveyor/treadmill effects via surface velocity. For rotational joints (e.g., ball joints), control signals now handle rotations beyond 180 degrees more smoothly. Additionally, preparations for future MIMO actuators split actuator counts into inputs, objects, and outputs.

  • Update to MuJoCo 3.11.0, requiring this version
  • Add SO3 transmission and native orientation actuator for rotational control like ball joints
  • Add geom adhesion: contacts that pull via translated friction cones

Pink v4.3.0: Fix braking-distance calculation for continuous joints

Pink is a Python library for robot kinematics. This release fixes a critical bug where the braking-distance term in AccelerationLimit was incorrect for joints without configuration limits, such as continuous joints. It also updates the list of revolute-joint shortnames supported by ManipulabilityTask, and adds support for Python 3.13 and 3.14. New examples and dependencies are included.

  • Fixed braking-distance calculation in AccelerationLimit for continuous joints
  • Updated the list of revolute-joint shortnames supported by ManipulabilityTask
  • Added support for Python 3.13 and 3.14
