CropCraft is a python script that allows to generate 3D models of crop fields specialized for real-time simulation of robotics application.
- Designed for real-time simulation
- Suitable for use with LiDARs and cameras
- Highly configurable (YAML file)
- Provide ground truth data (identify plant types in LiDAR data)
This program uses blender as a backend.
It is a 3D modeling software that you can dowload from the
official website.
You also have to check that it is launchable from the command line.
It means that blender must be accessible using the PATH environment variable.
You also need to install some python requirements:
pip install -r requirements.txt
To generate a crop field, you first need to create a configuration file (YAML formats).
Some examples are available in the examples directory.
Then you can execute the cropcraft.py script and specify the path of the choosen configuration
file.
python cropcraft.py examples/test1.yaml
This command will generate a blender file named test1.blend a gazebo model named test1
Some options are available and described using
python cropcraft.py --help
