Creating Octomap from Blender file

edit

Dear all,

I would like to use dynamicEDT3D that comes with octomap for distance computation. For the moment this question is not necessarily a ROS issue, but I hope to get an answer to my problem here as well.

I am using the latest source code from the octomap github repository and built it. I created a simple environment within blender (2.61) only consisting of a wall spanning from 0,05..x..0,15 -0,5..y..0,5 0,0..z..1,0 (Blender coordinates) and a point lamp. Then, I followed the tutorial to generate a binary tree to initialize the octomap structure.

I used the following commands:

• Export as X3D Extensible 3D file with 'Y forward' and 'Z up'

• xsltproc -o collision_test_envYZ.vrml X3dToVrml97.xslt collision_test_envYZ.x3d
