Detailed Description

Jacobian, geometric model functionalities... for Biclops, pan, tilt head.

Two different Denavit-Hartenberg representations of the robot are implemented. As mentioned in vpBiclops::DenavitHartenbergModel they differ in the orientation of the tilt axis. Use setDenavitHartenbergModel() to select the representation.

See http://www.traclabs.com/tracbiclops.htm for more details concerning the hardware.

Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ DenavitHartenbergModel

Two different Denavit-Hartenberg representations of the robot are implemented. As you can see in the next image, they differ in the orientation of the tilt axis.

Biclops PT models

The first representation, vpBiclops::DH1 is given by:

Joint $a_i$ $d_i$ $\alpha_i$ $\theta_i$
1 0 0 $-\pi/2$ $q_1$
2 0 0 $ \pi/2$ $q_2 + \pi/2$

The second one, vpBiclops::DH2 is given by:

Joint $a_i$ $d_i$ $\alpha_i$ $\theta_i$
1 0 0 $ \pi/2$ $q_1$
2 0 0 $-\pi/2$ $q_2 - \pi/2$

where $q_1, q_2$ are respectively the pan and tilt joint positions.

In those representations, the pan is oriented from left to right, while the tilt is oriented
