创建可视化标记#
本指南介绍如何通过 markers.VisualizationMarkers 在场景中绘制坐标系、箭头、球体和自定义网格等调试几何体。标记仅用于显示,不包含物理属性,也不会影响仿真。
对于简单的点、线和样条,Isaac Sim 的 isaacsim.util.debug_draw 扩展更轻量。需要复杂形状时,使用 VisualizationMarkers 。
Kit、Newton GL、Rerun 和 Viser 支持标记,Newton RTX 暂不支持。各可视化器启用标记的方法见 可视化 。
快速开始#
运行内置的 markers 示例:
uv run --extra isaacsim isaaclab example markers
传入 --visualizer newton_gl 或其他受支持后端,可切换可视化器;默认为 kit 。
示例脚本中的全部标记原型按网格排列。各列原地旋转,并定期向前轮换到下一个原型。#
关闭窗口或按 Ctrl+C 可停止。

配置标记#

备注
由于标记不参与仿真,创建时会移除其原型生成配置中的物理属性。

绘制标记#
visualize() 设置标记位姿,还可通过 marker_indices 指定各标记实例使用的原型。
my_visualizer.visualize(marker_locations, marker_orientations, marker_indices=marker_indices)
参数保持 None 时,沿用之前的值。传入行数与上次不同,会调整标记实例数量。完整参数列表( translations 、 orientations 、 scales 、 marker_indices 、 environment_ids )见 visualize() 的文档字符串。
标记的实际应用#
标记常用于训练期间调试各环境状态,例如比较指令速度与当前速度,或显示接触事件:
AnymalD 机器人上表示速度指令(绿色)和当前速度(蓝色)的箭头标记。
Franka 机械臂上的关节箭头标记,以及立方体上的接触传感器标记。
