Detailed Description

Simulates a force-torque sensor mounted between a link and its parent. Can be configured to be up to 6DOF.

To set up an accurate model of a force-torque sensor, you need to set up a link centered at the sensor frame welded to its parent link. The parent link must contain all the mass of the mount on the mounting side, and the sensor link must contain all the mass on the other (end effector) side. Any descendant links of the end effector (like fingers of a hand) should be attached to the sensor link. NOTE: This conflicts with the way that Klampt's ODE implementation handles welded links! TODO: fix that.

Member Function Documentation

virtual void Klampt::ForceTorqueSensor::DrawGL ( const RobotModel robot,
const vector< double > &  measurements 
)
overridevirtual

If the sensor can be drawn, draw the sensor on the robot's current configuration, using these measurements, using OpenGL calls.

Reimplemented from Klampt::SensorBase.

virtual void Klampt::ForceTorqueSensor::SetMeasurements ( const vector< double > &  values)
overridevirtual

Updates the internal measurement vector. Should be overridden to correctly restore state using ReadState(), or to visualize a physical robot's sensors.

Reimplemented from Klampt::SensorBase.

virtual bool Klampt::ForceTorqueSensor::SetSetting ( const string &  name,
const string &  str 
)
overridevirtual

Set a named setting. Returns false if the name is not supported, or the value is formatted incorrectly

Reimplemented from Klampt::SensorBase.
