Detailed Description

Transformation stamped with time, frame ID and child frame ID, as it is stored in the buffer.

A transformation object of this class is internally represented by a translation vector and rotation quaternion. Since tf messages are also represented this way, no expensive conversion takes place if a tf is stored in the buffer. Once a transform of this type is needed for actual transformation, it is converted to a StampedTransform object that is represented by a 4x4 matrix.
