New Features
Docker
Added new experimental docker image for Ubuntu22.04 http://github.com/robotology/yarp/docker
GUIs
yarpaudiocontrolgui
Added new gui yarpaudiocontrolgui
to start/stop an audioRecorder_nwc_yarp
or an audioPlayer_nwc_yarp
device.
yarpllmgui
Added new gui yarpllmgui
to control IChatbot
devices.
Libraries
libYARP_sig
- The class
yarp::sig::sound
has refactored to avoid the internal use (private implementation) ofyarp::sig::Image
data type.
libYARP_companion

yarp split
. The command splits an heterogeneous nested bottle received from a port into multiple ports.
libYARP_dev
- Added new interface:
IJointCoupling
, an interface for handling coupled joints. - Added new interfaces:
ISpeechSynthesizer
,ISpeechTranscription
. - Added new interface:
IChatBot
to interact with chatbots. - The interface
ITorqueControl
now supports four a new friction parameters:velocityThresh
.
These parameters are used to enable the new torque control law and fine tune the the friction compensation at FW level.
Devices
frameTransformStorage + frameTransformClient + frameTransformServer
- Added a timeout related parameter (
FrameTransform_container_timeout
) to change the refresh interval for old timed frame transforms. - The parameter has also been added to the
frameTransformClient
andframeTransformServer
configuration files. Theextern-name
for this parameter is:
ftc_storage_timeout
forframeTransformClient
files;fts_storage_timeout
forframeTransformServer
files
chatBot
