Tested with the Kinova Gen3 and found another bug with the joint value clamping + fixed it. Now it should be good! 2023-09-29.10-29-28.mp4 |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Should var.span just be a function?

I think we want this to be a variable so it doesn't have to be needlessly recalculated multiple times... but with your next comment, I like the idea of providing abstractions to clip variables to limits / generate random values, and then no other code besides these functions would touch the span member variable.

Thanks @eholum -- I made some member functions in the In doing so, I also:

This PR correctly handles how to deal with continuous joints by ensuring that none of the RSL samples use the full floating-point span. Also did some slight cleanup along the way.
The key here is that, if a joint is continuous, our sampling now is casting a "spread" of +/- pi radians around the current state. That way the sampling is somewhat limited.
Closes #57
