Jan 1, 2025

January 2025 (2025-01) focused on strengthening the mujoco-wasm feature surface, stabilizing spec/binding workflows, and enabling 3D rendering capabilities. Delivered robust spec lookup via compiler option pointer, recursive FindSpec for nested attachments, and added MJX bindings with asset exposure; introduced MjSpec utilities, qpos support, and error handling for invalid binds. Implemented 3D mesh generation from convex OBJ when Flex dimension is 3. Expanded sensor data bindings and MjSpec API (find functions, override_assets, asset constructors, to_zip). Strengthened attach and asset dictionary handling by merging child assets, validating keyframe sizes, and improving test coverage with worldbody assertions. Result: improved stability, greater automation in asset management, expanded end-to-end capabilities for 3D scenes and sensor integrations.

Month: 2024-10 | Monthly summary for menloresearch/mujoco-wasm focusing on business value and technical excellence. Key features delivered: - Model spec lifecycle and composition correctness: ensured specs travel with models across compile, duplication, and attachment; introduced mjs_findSpec; aligned spec handling with attachment and composition, including keyframe resizing. - Asset-level inertia configuration and centralized compiler options: moved inertia calculation to asset/mesh with new options (convex, exact, legacy) and centralized compiler options in mjsCompiler for reliability when attaching or copying models. - API usability improvements for object lookup and spec traversal: enhanced MjBody/MjSpec API to support string names in find_all, recursive traversal, and convenient access properties to improve modeling workflows. - Core library data model update: flex_vert0 replaces legacy flex_xvert0 and stores vertex positions normalized to [0,1] to enable future deformation interpolation. - Documentation and tutorials updates for mjSpec API and related plugins: updated tutorials, fixed links/imports, maintained compatibility across MuJoCo releases, and documented SdfLib plugin usage. Major bugs fixed: - Do not delete attached specs after compilation; specs are retained and copied to destination specs to preserve model integrity. - Ensure attached specs are preserved during attach/copy operations, preventing missing or inconsistent specs. - Move keyframe resizing from compilation to attach (MjCModel::operator+=) to ensure resize semantics align with attachment workflows. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Significantly improved reliability of model assembly and spec persistence, reducing risk of missing or inconsistent specs during complex operations. - Streamlined modeling workflows with enhanced API usability and asset-level configuration, enabling safer attachments, copies, and future deformation features. - Strengthened maintainability through data model modernization and comprehensive, forward-compatible documentation. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - C++/MuJoCo internals, asset-level configuration, and API design. - Refactoring for reliability and maintainability; robust handling of model specs during lifecycle events. - Documentation craftsmanship and cross-version compatibility.
