Member Function Documentation

virtual void KNI::KatanaKinematics::DK ( coordinates solution,
encoders const &  current_encoders 
) const [pure virtual]

Direct Kinematic. Calculates the actual position in cartesian coordinates using the given encoders

Parameters:
solutionThis is where the algorithm will store the solution to (in cartesian coordinates)
current_encodersThe encoder values which are being used for the calculation
Note:
strong guarantee provided

Implemented in KNI::KatanaKinematics6M180, KNI::KatanaKinematics5M180, KNI::KatanaKinematics6M90G, and KNI::KatanaKinematics6M90T.

virtual void KNI::KatanaKinematics::IK ( encoders::iterator  solution,
coordinates const &  pose,
encoders const &  cur_angles 
) const [pure virtual]

Inverse Kinematic. Calculates one set of encoders (=one solution) for the given cartesian coordinates. You also have to provide the current encoders to allow the algorithm to choose between different valid solutions.

Parameters:
solutionThis is where the algorithm will store the solution to (in encoders)
poseThe target position in cartesian coordinates plus the euler angles for the direction of the gripper
cur_anglesThe current angles (in encoders) of the robot
Note:
strong guarantee provided

Implemented in KNI::KatanaKinematics6M180, KNI::KatanaKinematics5M180, KNI::KatanaKinematics6M90G, and KNI::KatanaKinematics6M90T.

virtual void KNI::KatanaKinematics::init ( metrics const &  length,
parameter_container const &  parameters 
) [pure virtual]

Initialize the parameters for the calculations. This is needed to validate the calculated angles and to choose an appropriate solution You have to provide 5 or 6 length's and parameters, depending on you robot type

Implemented in KNI::KatanaKinematics6M180, KNI::KatanaKinematics5M180, KNI::KatanaKinematics6M90G, and KNI::KatanaKinematics6M90T.
