mdl_baxter

Kinematic model of Baxter dual-arm robot

MDL_BAXTER is a script that creates the workspace variables LEFT and RIGHT which describes the kinematic characteristics of the two arms of a Rethink Robotics Baxter robot using standard DH conventions.

Also define the workspace vectors:

qz zero joint angle configuration
qr vertical 'READY' configuration
qd lower arm horizontal as per data sheet
