Universal Robots Bugs & Robot-forum Wish list

Hi.

It will be nice if We can build a GUI in polyscope .

I am trying to create some basic programs using the offline simulator for the UR5.

I am using Windows and a VM as per the instructions.

When I am trying to create a program, the robot arm graphics keeps blinking very fast and I cannot see any movements or cannot finish a program, has anyone come across this before? I have attached a video of it here video-1596014422.mp4

It might be with my VM set up?

Below are my laptop and VM specs:

Laptop specs:

• DELL Latitude 5400
• System type: x64-based PC
• Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8665U CPU @ 1.90GHz, 2112 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 8 Logical Processor(s)
• RAM: 16 G
• Graphic: Intel (R) UHD Graphics 620, RAM 1 G

VM specs:

• I use Oracle VM VirtualBox
• All the memory etc. is set by the recommended values included in the installation instructions.
• RAM: 1024 MB

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Unfortunately, running the URSim under VirtualBox has this glitch problem.

Althought I personally prefer use VirtualBox, in this case the best option for me is use VMware Player.

I actually had issues with VMware Player when installing the URSim, that is why I went to use VirtualBox. When using VMware Player, after I downloaded the URSim off UR download webpage, I could never find it in downloads when I searched using my VM. I contacted UR support and they advised to use VirtualBox.

It`s like a catch 22

Another problem I remember when using VirtualBox: USB stick detection.
