how to create 3 link robot using robotic toolbox

65 views (last 30 days)
I'm trying to create a 3 links revolute robot using robotic toolbox release 8.
I define the links as below:
L1=link([0 1 0 0 0],'standard')
L2=link([0 1 0 0 0],'standard')
L3=link([0 1 0 0 0],'standard')
r=robot({L1 L2 L3})
plot(r,[1 1])
but it returns error"Insufficient columns in q"
how to solve this?

Try this:
L1 = link([0 1 0 0],'standard')
L2 = link([0 1 0 0],'standard')
L3 = link([0 1 0 0],'standard')
r = robot({L1,L2,L3})
plot(r,[1,1,1]);
The last matrix [1,1,1] is the default positions of the links.
To play further, try
drivebot(r)

Undefined function 'link' for input arguments of type 'double'.

The references to link should be references to Link
The functions are from the Peter Corke Robotics toolbox https://petercorke.com/toolboxes/robotics-toolbox/
