geometry_msgs

This package provides messages for common geometric primitives such as points, vectors, and poses. These primitives are designed to provide a common data type and facilitate interoperability throughout the system.

For more information about ROS 2 interfaces, see docs.ros.org.

Messages (.msg)

• Accel: Expresses acceleration in free space broken into its linear and angular parts.

• AccelStamped: An accel with reference coordinate frame and timestamp.

• AccelWithCovariance: Acceleration in free space with uncertainty.

• AccelWithCovarianceStamped: An estimated accel with reference coordinate frame and timestamp.

• Inertia: Expresses the inertial properties of a link.

• InertiaStamped: An Inertia with reference coordinate frame and timestamp.

• Point32: The position of a 3-dimensional point in free space, with 32-bit fields.

• Point: The position of a 3-dimensional point in free space.

• PointStamped: Point with reference coordinate frame and timestamp.

• Polygon: A specification of a polygon where the first and last points are assumed to be connected.

• PolygonStamped: A Polygon with reference coordinate frame and timestamp.

• Pose2D: Deprecated as of Foxy and will potentially be removed in any following release.

• PoseArray: An array of poses with a header for global reference.

• Pose: A representation of pose in free space, composed of position and orientation.

• PoseStamped: A Pose with reference coordinate frame and timestamp.

• PoseWithCovariance: A pose in free space with uncertainty.

• PoseWithCovarianceStamped: An estimated pose with a reference coordinate frame and timestamp.

• Quaternion: An orientation in free space in quaternion form.

• QuaternionStamped: An orientation with reference coordinate frame and timestamp.

• Transform: The transform between two coordinate frames in free space.

• TransformStamped: A transform from coordinate frame header.frame_id to the coordinate frame child_frame_id.

• Twist: Velocity in 3-dimensional free space broken into its linear and angular parts.

• TwistStamped: A twist with reference coordinate frame and timestamp.

• TwistWithCovariance: Velocity in 3-dimensional free space with uncertainty.

• TwistWithCovarianceStamped: An estimated twist with reference coordinate frame and timestamp.

• Vector3: Represents a vector in 3-dimensional free space.

• Vector3Stamped: Represents a Vector3 with reference coordinate frame and timestamp.

• Wrench: Represents force in free space, separated into its linear and angular parts.

• WrenchStamped: A wrench with reference coordinate frame and timestamp.
