Footnotes

1. Ray tracing animation are rendered in SAPIEN using the urdf with glb version. Code can be found in generate_urdf_animation_sapien.py. ↩

2. Collision mesh are rendered in SAPIEN using the same urdf as the visual. Blue links are modeled using primitives while green links are modeled using convex triangle meshes. Code can be found in generate_urdf_collision_figure_sapien.py](tools/generate_urdf_collision_figure_sapien.py). ↩
