Overview
Pybotics
is an open-source Python toolbox for robot kinematics and calibration.
It was designed to provide a simple, clear, and concise interface to quickly simulate and evaluate common robot concepts, such as kinematics, dynamics, trajectory generations, and calibration.
The toolbox is specifically designed for use with the Modified Denavit–Hartenberg parameters convention.
