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.
