Hi all,

I am struggling to create robottargets within a python script from quaternions. When I create a target with the "New target"-button in RoboDK and paste the Quaternion it works fine. But I have 364 targets that need to be created and I would like to do this with a python script but I don't know how the code should look like.
I hope someone can help me with that. I already have written a small script, but this only transfers the xyz-coordinates to RoboDK but not the orientation.
I attached a 4x4 Matrix (quaternion) of one of my poses, and the script I have written.

It looks like you already have a 4x4 matrix in the text file you provided.

You can create this matrix (Mat) by directly providing the all components of your matrix using a list of lists in Python:

Code:

poselist = [[1,0,0,0],[0,1,0,0],[0,0,1,0],[0,0,0,1]]
pose = robomath.Mat(poselist)
if not pose.isHomogeneous():
print("Something is wrong: this pose is not homogeneous.")
print(pose)

The opposite of Pose_2_ABB would be a function that takes 7 values (xyz,q1,q2,q3,q4) and returns a pose (4x4 matrix). This function could look like this:

Code:

def ABB_2_Pose(xyzq1234):
xyz = xyzq1234[0:3]
q1234 = xyzq1234[3:7]
pose = quaternion_2_pose(q1234)
pose.setPos(xyz)
return pose

Hello Albert,
thanks for the quick answer! Right now I am trying to implement the first solution you provided, but somehow my program doesn't recognize the robomath module.
First the program gave me the following error:
NameError: name 'robomath' is not defined
Than I tried to import robomath with:
from robodk import robomath
But that gave me the error:
ImportError: cannot import name 'robomath' from 'robodk' (/home/robi/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/robodk/robodk.py)

I am using RoboDK version 5.3.0

Any ideas how to fix that?

Best regards
Dustin

Try using this code at the top of your script for RoboDK imports:

Code:

from robolink import *
from robodk import *

This should work for all versions. You can then access all functions directly like this:

Code:

pose = Mat(4)
xyzabc = Pose_2_KUKA(pose)
