[SOLVED] Geomagic touch failed to initialize the device

Hey @yitian

Usually you can find a link by following the guide here but the download URL is down for some reason.

I have uploaded the driver files for you here https://gofile.io/d/xF9EvG, you should be able to install the drivers and then follow the instructions on Geomagic plugin’s page.

Hi @yitian,

Usually the files are can be found by following the guide on here. The link is unreachable so I have uploaded the drivers for you https://gofile.io/d/xF9EvG.

Follow the steps on SOFA’s website and you should be good to go.

Hi Eyad,

Thank you! I have tried your version. But it seems that the driver you provided is for Geomagic Touch Ethernet version but I got a USB one. I have updated my ubuntu to 18.04 and downloaded the newest driver in the official website. I got my device working now. I am actually using this device to control the ur5 arm and I am working on surgical rovotics. If you want to have any further discussion on this device, please contact me.

Best,
Yitian
