What's new?

  • mFIZ is here! mFIZ is an add-on that can be used as a standalone tool to program and drive lens control motors live from Maya. You can also connect an mFIZ node to a robot to write FIZ values directly to a robot program.
  • Added animation support for FANUC and Kawasaki Robots
  • Added a simple Staubli VAL3 and general CSV post-processor
  • Added new robot rigs for KUKA, FANUC, and Kawasaki
  • Improved robustness of exporting programs
  • Improved annotations, comments, warnings, dialogs throughout
  • Improved the Mimic codebase, usability, and squashed bugs throughout

What's next?

  • Live HUD readout of Velocity, Acceleration, and Jerk in Maya's viewport
  • Live communication tools and robot drivers from the community
  • More tutorials and documentation.

Important Note:

  • If you've installed a beta version of mFIZ, be sure to delete mFIZ.mod in your modules folder before installing Mimic v1.4.0. mFIZ is now loaded from the mimic.mod module file.

  • For installation instructions and a list of supported robots, see our README.
  • Note: the only difference between the Mac and Windows versions are the precompiled versions of NumPy we've included in each
  • To obtain more robot rigs, download a rigs archive and merge it into mimic/rigs.
  • Tutorials can be found at mimicformaya.com.
