A library for automatic extraction of Denavit-Hartenberg parameters from a robot model.
To install AutoDH run:
$ pip install autodh
To generate DH parameters from OpenRAVE models use scripts/openrave.py.
Here's an example for Puma from link Base to link Puma6:
$ python scripts/openrave.py robots/pumaarm.zae Base Puma6
Another example for PR2 from link base_link to link r_gripper_palm_link:
$ python scripts/openrave.py robots/pr2-beta-static.zae base_link r_gripper_palm_link
Install test suite dependencies before running unit tests:
$ pip install autodh[test]
$ pytest autodh
