Class InvKinSolver

  • Direct Known Subclasses:
    ClosedFormIK, IterativeIK
    public class InvKinSolver
extends java.lang.Object
    Interface for inverse kinematics algorithms

    The InvKinSolver interface provides an interface for calculating
    the inverse kinematics of a device.

    By default it solves the problem beginning at the robot base and
    ending with the frame defined as the end of the devices, and which is
    accessible through the Device::getEnd() method.

        public VectorQ solve​(Transform3Dd baseTend,
                     State state)
        Calculates the inverse kinematics

        Given a desired transform
        and the current state, the method solves the inverse kinematics
        problem.

        If the algorithm is able to identify multiple solutions (e.g. elbow
        up and down) it will return all of these. Before returning a solution,
        they may be checked to be within the bounds of the configuration space.
        (See setCheckJointLimits(bool) )

        Parameters:
        baseTend - [in] Desired base to end transformation.

        state - [in] State of the device from which to start the
        iterations

        Returns:
        List of solutions. Notice that the list may be empty.

        Note: The targets baseTend must be defined relative to the base of the
        robot/device.

      • setCheckJointLimits

        public void setCheckJointLimits​(boolean check)
        Specifies whether to check joint limits before returning a solution.

        Parameters:
        check - [in] If true the method should perform a check that joints are within bounds.

      • getTCP

        public FrameCPtr getTCP()
        Returns the Tool Center Point (TCP) used when solving the IK problem.

        Returns:
        The TCP Frame used when solving the IK.
