The latest iteration of Foxglove Studio’s most popular panel is now available.
Rewriting the panel using three.js has unlocked some exciting new features:
-
Support for non-ROS visualization primitives like cubes, spheres, and lines
-
Better rendering for transparent objects
-
More renderable types – including multiple grids and URDF models, more mesh types, and camera images projected into 3D space.
-
Streamlined user experience when navigating a visually dense 3D scene
We also recorded a podcast episode talking through the behind-the-scenes motivations and decisions that went into this new 3D panel:
As we continue iterating on this new panel, we’re excited to hear your thoughts! You can share your feedback with us here, in our community Slack, on Twitter, or on GitHub.
