Detailed Description

This class encapsulates a simple segment, that is a "rigid body" (i.e., a frame and a rigid body inertia) with a joint and with "handles", root and tip to connect to other segments.

A simple segment is described by the following properties :

Joint
Rigid Body Inertia: of the rigid body part of the Segment
Offset from the end of the joint to the tip of the segment: the joint is located at the root of the segment.

Definition at line 46 of file segment.hpp.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

KDL::Segment::Segment	(	const std::string &	name,
		const Joint &	joint = `Joint(Joint::None)`,

Returns: the original parent end - segment end pose.

Definition at line 149 of file segment.hpp.

const RigidBodyInertia& KDL::Segment::getInertia ( ) const

inline

Request the inertia of the segment

Returns: const reference to the inertia of the segment

Definition at line 128 of file segment.hpp.

const Joint& KDL::Segment::getJoint ( ) const

inline

Request the joint of the segment

Returns: const reference to the joint of the segment

Definition at line 118 of file segment.hpp.

const std::string& KDL::Segment::getName ( ) const

inline

Request the name of the segment

Returns: const reference to the name of the segment

Definition at line 108 of file segment.hpp.

Segment & KDL::Segment::operator= ( const Segment & arg )

Definition at line 44 of file segment.cpp.

Frame KDL::Segment::pose ( const double & q ) const

Request the pose of the segment, given the joint position q.

Parameters

q	1D position of the joint

Returns: pose from the root to the tip of the segment

Definition at line 57 of file segment.cpp.

void KDL::Segment::setFrameToTip ( const Frame & f_tip_new )

Set the pose from the joint end to the tip of the segment.

Parameters

f_tip_new pose from the joint end to the tip of the segment

Definition at line 67 of file segment.cpp.

void KDL::Segment::setInertia ( const RigidBodyInertia & Iin )

inline

Request the inertia of the segment

Returns: const reference to the inertia of the segment

Definition at line 138 of file segment.hpp.

Twist KDL::Segment::twist	(	const double &	q,
		const double &	qdot
	)		const

Request the 6D-velocity of the tip of the segment, given the joint position q and the joint velocity qdot.

Parameters

q	1D position of the joint
qdot	1D velocity of the joint

Returns: 6D-velocity of the tip of the segment, expressed in the base-frame of the segment(root) and with the tip of the segment as reference point.
