These xml files are needed for PR 232.

Following Vittorio's advice, I have created a myoArm model that has no hand or hand muscles, for use in a pure reaching task.

I have created two new files:

  1. myoarm_nohand_body.xml is a modification of myoarm_body.xml. All I have done is i) comment out the lines we don't need, and ii) added a new site at the end of the forearm called forearm_tip, which will act as the end effector in the reaching task.
  2. myoarm_nohand_assets.xml is a modification of myoarm_assets.xml. All I have done is comment out the lines we don't need.

There is currently redundancy, as the arm-with-no-hand model is contained within the full arm model. A cleaner solution would be to define the full arm model as the arm-with-no-hand model with the hand included. However, as a first pass, I thought I would add these files rather than modify the full arm model.

This file is not needed as Vittorio suggested to include the hand bones and joints for the reaching environment (just exclude the hand tendons and muscles).
Site added at the tip of the forearm, for use as an end effector in the new myoArmReachFixed-v0 and myoArmReachRandom-v0 environments.
Vittorio suggested to include the hand bones and joints for the reaching tasks (previously excluded) and just exclude the hand tendons and muscles. The file has been updated to reflect this change.
