New FeatureScript "Get Pose"

Javier_López_del_Pueyo

Hi!

I recently made public a FeatureScript that solves I problem I had encountered multiple times. That is: to be able to get the relative pose (that is, translation and orientation) between two MateConnectors. 

It is a problem relatively common in robotics and until know I had to compute it through approximate calculations. Now, the FeatureScripts [CS] Get Pose allows to select two MateConnectors and output the pose of MateConnector 2 relative to MateConnector 1.

Here is the public link:

The pose is given as a rotation matrix +  translation vector, and can be checked in the FeatureScript notice window.



It is a very simple FeatureScript, so feel free to use it and propose ways to improve it.

Cheers!

Update!

I updated the Custom Feature and renamed it to Set/Get Pose.

Now the feature has two tabs.

• Get tab allows to get the relative Pose between Two MCs

• Set tab allows to create a MC given a Rotation Matrix, a Translation Vector, and an origin MC.
