Occupancy Extension [omni.isaac.occupancy_map]

class Generator

Bases: pybind11_builtins.pybind11_object

This class is used to generate an occupancy map for a USD stage. Assuming the stage has collision geometry information, the following code can be used to generate the occupancy map information

Example

import omni
from omni.isaac.occupancy_map import _occupancy_map

physx = omni.physx.acquire_physx_interface()
stage_id = omni.usd.get_context().get_stage_id()

generator = _occupancy_map.Generator(physx, stage_id)
# 0.05m cell size, output buffer will have 4 for occupied cells, 5 for unoccupied, and 6 for cells that cannot be seen
# this assumes your usd stage units are in m, and not cm
generator.update_settings(.05, 4, 5, 6)
# Set location to map from and the min and max bounds to map to
generator.set_transform((0, 0, 0), (-2, -2, 0), (2, 2, 0))
generator.generate2d()
# Get locations of the occupied cells in the stage
points = generator.get_occupied_positions()
# Get computed 2d occupancy buffer
buffer = generator.get_buffer()
# Get dimensions for 2d buffer
dims = generator.get_dimensions()
__init__(self: omni.isaac.occupancy_map._occupancy_map.Generator, arg0: omni::physx::IPhysx, arg1: int) → None
Parameters

  • Pointer to PhysX interface (arg0) –

  • Stage ID for the USD stage to map (arg1) –

generate2d(self: omni.isaac.occupancy_map._occupancy_map.Generator) → None

Main function that generates a map based on the settings and transform set. Assumes that a 2d map is generated and flattens the computed data

generate3d(self: omni.isaac.occupancy_map._occupancy_map.Generator) → None

Main function that generates a map based on the settings and transform set. Assumes 3d generation, output is not flattened

get_buffer(self: omni.isaac.occupancy_map._occupancy_map.Generator) → List[float]
Returns

2D array containing values for each cell in the occupancy map.

Return type

list of float

get_colored_byte_buffer(self: omni.isaac.occupancy_map._occupancy_map.Generator, arg0: carb._carb.Int4, arg1: carb._carb.Int4, arg2: carb._carb.Int4) → List[str]

Convenience function to generate an image from the occupancy map

Parameters

  • arg0 (carb.Int4) – RGBA Value used to denote an occupied cell

  • arg1 (carb.Int4) – RGBA Value used to denote an unoccupied cell

  • arg2 (carb.Int4) – RGBA Value used to denote unknown areas that could not be reached from the starting location

Returns

Flattened buffer containing list of RGBA values for each pixel. Can be used to render as image directly

Return type

list of int

get_dimensions(self: omni.isaac.occupancy_map._occupancy_map.Generator) → carb._carb.Int3
Returns

Dimensions for output buffer

Return type

carb.Int2

get_free_positions(self: omni.isaac.occupancy_map._occupancy_map.Generator) → List[carb._carb.Float3]
Returns

List of 2d points in stage coordinates containing free locations.

Return type

list of carb.Float2

get_max_bound(self: omni.isaac.occupancy_map._occupancy_map.Generator) → carb._carb.Float3
Returns

Maximum bound for generated occupancy map instage coordinates

Return type

carb.Float2

get_min_bound(self: omni.isaac.occupancy_map._occupancy_map.Generator) → carb._carb.Float3
Returns

Minimum bound for generated occupancy map instage coordinates

Return type

carb.Float2

get_occupied_positions(self: omni.isaac.occupancy_map._occupancy_map.Generator) → List[carb._carb.Float3]
Returns

List of 2d points in stage coordinates containing occupied locations.

Return type

list of carb.Float2

set_transform(self: omni.isaac.occupancy_map._occupancy_map.Generator, arg0: carb._carb.Float3, arg1: carb._carb.Float3, arg2: carb._carb.Float3) → None

Set origin and bounds for mapping

Parameters

  • arg0 (carb.Float3) – Origin in stage to start mapping from, must be in unoccupied space

  • arg1 (carb.Float3) – Minimum bound to map up to

  • arg2 (carb.Float3) – Maximum bound to map up to

update_settings(self: omni.isaac.occupancy_map._occupancy_map.Generator, arg0: float, arg1: float, arg2: float, arg3: float) → None

Updates settings used for generating the occupancy map

Parameters

  • arg0 (float) – Size of the cell in stage units, resolution of the grid

  • arg1 (float) – Value used to denote an occupied cell

  • arg2 (float) – Value used to denote an unoccupied cell

  • arg3 (float) – Value used to denote unknown areas that could not be reached from the starting location
