[ODE] attaching a ray to bodies

Use an GeomTransform - it works excellently.

Hi all!

 

I'm trying to simulate a sensor using the ray class and attach it to a
simulated robot.

The problem I'm facing is that I don't know how to attach the sensor
to a particular coordinate in the mobile's robot body and keep the
original orientation (relative to the robot) while the robot is
navigating through the environment.

Is there an easy way to update ray's position/orientation based in its
parent's (robot) position/orientation?

 

Many thanks,

 

Gustavo
