Configuration of Ghost Teaching

Hello there,
I’m currently trying to configure the Ghost Teaching , and I followed the tutorial for the creation. I’m trying to add the tool_ghostCamera for ghostTeaching. I created the TCP via the Nova API. The TCP is created and can be found inside the setup. But for some reason it doesn’t show up in the ghost teaching selection menu Did I miss anything? If you have any ideas what is causing this please let me know. Sadly I can’t add screenshots to this post

Hey Lukas!

I tried a different setting that should allow you to post screenshots. Let me know if that helps. From there hopefully that will give us a better understanding of what you are missing.

Thanks!
Jayden

This is my Stage:


This is the TCP I created through the API:

This is the ghost tool menu:

Hey Lucas,

My first guess is that the hierarchy needs to be checked again. You need to place your gripper “parallel” to your robot (same workspace). From the screen shot it looks like your gripper is a child node of the robot.

Changed it this is how it’s supposed to be right?

This didn’t help :confused: if you have other ideas let me know.

Hey Lukas,
So we have had a look at it and it is interesting, as the scene is looking good so far.

The question is if you already have hit the connect button after configuring the robot in robot pad. The ghost “sources” get created the moment a from omniverse is connected to nova.

if you already have done that, we could only have a look into the scene and do some sherlock work, if you can provide us with the usd.

We were able to fix it. The problem was, that the tool wasn’t connected via the joint.
