New Simulation Object VI
Owning Palette: Offline Configuration VIs
Requires: Robotics Module
Creates a new component for use in a robotics simulation scene you can render in the robotics simulator. After you use this VI to create a component, wire the output to a Property Node (Simulation Engine) to access and define attributes of the component.
When you finish defining components, prepare to save them in a manifest file.
