Stack Summary

The basic geometric and math libraries used in ros.

Documentation

Math Packages

  • angles - A collection of methods for computing angles.

  • eigen - A generic math library

Geometric Packages

  • bullet - A physics engine

    • Primary used for linear math library
    • Experimentally used for collision engine.
  • kdl - A kinematics and dynamics package.

    • Primarily used for robot kinematics
  • tf - A coordinate transform library

    • Used to keep track of coordinate frames throughout the robot
  • tf_conversions - A set of conversion functions to go between tf, kdl, and eigen datatypes.
