Hii! I am Tanmay. A mechanical engineering student at the Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay. I am interested in working and collaborating on this project.

I am stuck in the robot palletizing example. In the helpercontopptraj block, the source code uses 'contopptraj,' a standard optimization function which takes 4 parameters or values as inputs. Running the simulation, it asks for solver name to be specified, but we can't since contapptraj takes only 4 values. So its a loop of error, if we do one other becomes error.

Hi @Tanmaey45,

Do you have the Optimization Toolbox installed? Please make sure you have it installed.
If you do already, please paste the error that you get and the snippet of the code the error refers to.

Got it! Thanks

The sign up link for this project isn't working. Can you kindly look into it? I have added an issue as well.

Hello, The issue got solved. I just wanted to ask whether the challenge wants us to solve optimization for 2D arrangement on the palette for variable box sizes or stacking layers also, i.e. solving and simulating a 3D packing problem Regards, Tanmay

It should be 3D, but if too difficult 2D is a good start.
