Robotic toolbox 'link' command outputs 5 values, not 4
Show older comments
Hi all
I am trying to create a robot link:
A= Link ([0 0 0 0], 'modified')
A =
theta=q, d= 0, a= 0, alpha= 0, offset= 0 (R,modDH)
Why when inputting 4 0's I get 5 values back. My rotational link has only 1 variable theta and I thought d is the link offset. Also, if I didn't define the fifth variable why is the system creating it. In all the tutorials people get 4 values back according to DH parameters Please help and thanks for your time Regards Timur
