SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires urdf-usd-converter, mujoco-usd-converter, usd-convert-cad.

What problem does it solve?

This skill resolves the friction of manual asset conversion by providing a standardized, automated routing system that transforms various source formats into OpenUSD files ready for downstream workflows.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated Routing: Intelligently identifies source types including CAD, mesh, URDF, and MuJoCo files to apply the correct conversion logic.
  • Dependency Management: Automatically handles the installation of required converter packages like urdf-usd-converter or usd-convert-cad.
  • Workflow Integration: Generates standardized conversion and validation reports, ensuring assets are ready for inspection and rendering in the content-workbench.

Quick Start

Use the content-workflow-convert-to-usd skill to convert the source asset located at ./models/robot.urdf into a USD file named robot.usda.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate the conversion of CAD and URDF files to USD format?▼

To convert URDF, MuJoCo, or CAD files to USD, this workflow automatically identifies source types and applies the correct conversion logic without manual intervention.

Do I need to manually install converters like urdf-usd-converter before converting assets?▼

No, you do not need to manually install converters like urdf-usd-converter, because the workflow automatically handles the installation of required converter packages during the routing process.

How does automated asset conversion ensure files are ready for downstream rendering workflows?▼

Automated asset conversion ensures files are ready for downstream workflows by generating standardized conversion and validation reports that verify output paths and conversion status for the content-workbench.

Can I convert MuJoCo and mesh files into OpenUSD using the same workflow as CAD models?▼

Yes, you can convert MuJoCo and mesh files into OpenUSD using the same workflow as CAD models, because the system provides a standardized routing process that supports diverse 3D source asset types.

What is the best way to prepare multiple 3D source assets for an OpenUSD content-workbench?▼

The best way to prepare multiple 3D source assets for an OpenUSD content-workbench is to use an automated preflight workflow that manages dependencies and validates conversion status across all file types.
