Hinge Joint
In depth learning on Configuring Joints can be found in this course in Motive Academy.
A Joint that rotates around a single axis.
Name | Description |
---|---|
Limit Rotation | If true, limit the rotation to certain values. |
Lower Rotation | The lower rotation limit. |
Upper Rotation | The upper rotation limit. |
Lower Stop | Snap Position: Snap the joint into the position of the upper bound when the Joint is within a certain range. This is useful for mimicking machinery that snaps parts into place as users move them. Snap Threshold: The threshold from the lower bound in which to apply the snap force. Limit Threshold: The threshold from the lower bound in which to fire the “In Limit” and “On Limit Reached” events. In Limit: Fired when a joint is inside the limit. Fires on Start as well as when a Joint newly enters the limit. On Limit Reached: Only fired when a Joint newly enters a limit (i.e. not on Start). Distinguished from In Limit for applying effects only when a Joint moves into a limit (e.g. haptic). On Limit Exited: Fires when a joint leaves a limit as defined by the Limit Threshold. Snap Force: Force to apply to the joint if Snap Position is true and the joint is within the Snap Threshold. For Hinge Joints, this is the torque. |
Upper Stop | As above, except for the upper limit. |
