# Standard Open Arm-100 5DOF - Version 1.3 Description (MJCF)
> [!IMPORTANT]
> Requires MuJoCo 3.1.6 or later.
## Changelog
See [CHANGELOG.md](./CHANGELOG.md) for a full history of changes.
## Overview
This package contains a simplified robot description (MJCF) of the [Standard Open Arm-100](https://github.com/TheRobotStudio/SO-ARM100/tree/main) developed by [The Robot Studio](https://www.therobotstudio.com/). It is derived from the [publicly available URDF description](https://github.com/TheRobotStudio/SO-ARM100/blob/4e9c5588d8a8415b6a6c2142a0ce8c32207cf3e9/URDF/SO_5DOF_ARM100_8j_URDF.SLDASM/urdf/SO_5DOF_ARM100_8j_URDF.SLDASM.urdf).

## URDF → MJCF derivation steps
1. Added `<mujoco><compiler discardvisual="false" strippath="false"/></mujoco>` to the URDF’s `<robot>` element to preserve visual geometries.
2. Loaded the URDF into MuJoCo and saved it as a corresponding MJCF.
3. Manually edited the MJCF to extract shared properties into the `<default>` section.
4. Edited original meshes: extracted servos into separate files, manually created convex collision meshes for the gripper jaws.
5. Added extra box-shaped collision geoms to the gripper for additional contact points.
6. Added an `exclude` clause to prevent collisions between `Base` and `Rotation_Pitch`.
7. Added approximate joint limits.
8. Added position-controlled actuators.
9. Added `impratio="10"` and `cone="elliptic"` attributes for improved no-slip behavior.
10. Created `scene.xml` to include the robot, along with a textured ground plane, skybox, and haze.
