Dynamic Simulation API

[mechamania]

Hi,

I'm using Inventor for several years. Now I want to do something, but I do not know if that is possible.

I have a machine with several actuators. I would like to write a program (prefferable C++) that simulates my motion controller.

It should be able to apply forces in my Dynamic Simulation (actuators) and I need to get position information (encoders) from the Dynamic Simulation after a set interval.

Is this possible using the API from Inventor?

If so, are there any examples how to start with this?

Thanks

Hi Mechamania,

Dynamic Simulation is a Add-in and therefore no Inventor API support.

Sorry.
