improved SkinGUI for fingertip

[simeonedussoni]

implemented:

• skin type fingertip 4L/R for mk1.1 PCB testing
• skin type fingertipMID for 3DMID visualization
• palm workaround (added a fakePalm with just one virtual taxel with zero gain and size to avoid crashing of the GUI)

Need to update also the CMakeList file.

Hi @simeonedussoni

A couple of inline comments to address.

A few more comments:

• Do we need also configuration files?
• If you did some tests like showing the results on the GUI, would you be willing to post them here?

here we have an example of configuration file showing all 5 types of layout, one of which activated by touchin the PCB

concerning the configuration files:

• for the (soon) mounted icub hands they are already in the repo under /app/skinGui/conf/skinGui/left_hand_V2_2.ini
• for ergocub: they are still to be produced, I can put there in the same location with "speaking names" and add to the PR
• for using the unwrapped version of the layout will be deployed in the test-skin-patches repo to keep them separate from the actual robot patches

This repo contains icub-specific SW. A better place for the ergoCub conf files is definitely https://github.com/icub-tech-iit/ergocub-software. I would wait for @Nicogene to show up before proceeding in this respect though.

Please, get aligned with @davidetome for that.

Awaiting the CI before merging.

@simeonedussoni a few comments:

please check the author and the copyright of the committed files.

add somewhere an explanation about which gui corresponds to which fingertip and in which configuration (wrapped or unwrapped).

Yes but I have no idea how can the SkinGui load fingertip compiled externally, if they are loaded run-time I am ok to move in ergocub-software

I meant only the .ini files.

Ok for me!
