assets: add the stacking-cup tower bundle (10 cups + duck, MJCF + USD)
Adds the stacking-cup tower bundle that backs the two new hand_track tasks
(stack_10f_tower, stack_6f_tower) in WUJI_SimBench PR #137.
What is here
assets/local_stacking_tower/ β eleven pieces from Meshy multi-image
reconstructions of the real graduated stacking-cup toy, rescaled onto the YCB
065 cups ladder:
cup01(56.5 mm) ..cup10(102.6 mm) β the ten graduated cupsduck(49 mm) β the topper
Each piece ships a visual OBJ + 4K texture, a cavity-true procedural collision
decomposition (49 convex parts per cup: azimuthal wall wedges on the measured
outer taper, the moulded shoulder ledge the cups seat on, and a cap hull), a
real-mass MJCF, and a textured USD sibling for IsaacSim.
One bundle backs both tasks β the six-floor tower uses the upper five cups plus
the duck β so there is only ever one asset set to keep in sync.
Validated
- MuJoCo: cups assemble into a standing tower; per-pair seat depths measured
across a yaw sweep and under load withmeasure_stacking_tower_seats.py
(shipped in this bundle), which is what the tasks' checker bands are
calibrated from. - IsaacSim RTX Real-Time: all pieces render with correct textures, colours
and size ladder from the included USDs.
Two known limitations, recorded rather than hidden
- The assembled ten-cup tower is only transiently stable: most towers stand
a few seconds after the last placement and most have toppled within thirty.
Deeper seats would be an asset change. - The duck perches rather than sockets. Its base has no recess matched to a
cup top, so it balances on the cup's domed closed end: when it engages it does
so at a very repeatable depth (0.0612-0.0613 m oncup01, 0.1 mm spread), but
across a yaw sweep it engages in only about half of orientations. A recess
sized tocup01's 47.4 mm top would fix it.
Note for whoever regenerates this
The MJCF header comments must not contain a literal -- (an XML comment cannot).
The generator's earlier --src <meshy_dir> regeneration hint made every MJCF
invalid XML: MuJoCo's parser tolerates it, but metasim loads MJCF through lxml,
which refuses, so the tasks could not boot at all. The comments here are
rewritten to avoid it.
