DQ Robotics Users, A few announcements. ① *We moved to Github!* Website: https://dqrobotics.github.io/ Repositories: https://github.com/dqrobotics ② *DQ Robotics Release 19.10* Check out the latest release of the library! So many improvements I wouldn't dare try to list them here. Installation guide at https://dqroboticsgithubio.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation.html "Although DQ Robotics has been around for several years, this is the first official release. It features classes for modeling and controlling serial manipulators, bimanual systems, mobile manipulators, mobile robots, etc., using dual quaternion algebra. The Matlab version includes a comprehensive and easy-to-use plot system and is ideal for studying and to quickly implement new ideas." (As described by Bruno) ③ *Tutorial paper* Check out this nice tutorial paper showing all the latest features of the DQ Robotics library. https://arxiv.org/abs/1910.11612 ④ *A fully-supported Python3 version* Yes, Christmas came early this year. All hail DQ Robotics Python. python3 -m pip install --user dqrobotics More info at https://dqroboticsgithubio.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation/python.html ⑤ *The future of DQ Robotics* With all the infrastructural improvements made to DQ Robotics this year, there won't be much need for this mailing list from now on. Get in touch with us through Github if you need any assistance. *Python*: https://github.com/dqrobotics/python/issues *MATLAB*: https://github.com/dqrobotics/matlab/issues *C++*: https://github.com/dqrobotics/cpp/issues Kind regards, Murilo -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- (Mr.) Murilo M.

DQRobotics Users, A few announcements. ① *「C++」Stable release PPA* I set up a 'release' PPA which will have stable versions of the library. Only LTS versions of Ubuntu are supported: 14.04/16.04/18.04. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:dqrobotics-dev/releasesudo apt-get updatesudo apt-get install libdqrobotics If you want the most recent version of the library you should stick to my private PPA's automatic builds. ② *「Website」Showcasing works using DQ Robotics * We are showcasing works using DQ Robotics at the website. http://dqrobotics.sourceforge.net/citations.html If you have papers using DQ Robotics you want to showcase which aren't co-authored by me or Prof. Adorno, contact me. ③ *「General」Dropping support for Python/C/CMEX/ROS source code* I removed these sources from the repository. We have decided to focus on the C++ and MATLAB releases. *ROS:* with the PPA system-wide installation, the ROS package became obsolete. *Python*: If you are in desperate need of DQ Robotics and Python (I know how that feels), I recommend calling the functions directly from the C++ shared object using ctypes <https://docs.python.org/3/library/ctypes.html>. *C/CMEX:* did anyone use these? *I have a question*: dqr...@li... *I found a bug/issue/please add this functionality:* https://sourceforge.net/p/dqrobotics/tickets/ Kind regards, Murilo -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- (Mr.) Murilo M.

DQRobotics C++ users, The latest version of DQRobotics C++ is set to automatically build in the following PPA: https://launchpad.net/dqrobotics To install it on Ubuntu, run the following commands on the terminal: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:murlou/libdqrobotics sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install libdqrobotics *Why should I use it?* (1) DQ Robotics becomes a system-wide C++ library. > You can include its headers, e.g. > #include <dqrobotics/DQ.h> > in any source code, including in your ROS sources. > The source code can be linked with the system-wide shared object > "libdqrobotics.so" > -ldqrobotics (2) You'll get the latest build of the repo automatically with all other Ubuntu updates, so you won't have to manage the source by yourself using SVN anymore. (3) In future versions of DQRobotics C++, we will probably drop the catkin package for ROS since the system-wide library is more convenient for everyone involved. (4) Future examples/tutorials in C++ will suppose you have the system library installed. (5) *Looks more pro.* *I have a question*: dqr...@li... *I found a bug/issue/please add this functionality:* https://sourceforge.net/p/dqrobotics/tickets/ Kind regards, Murilo |
