I am learning robotics this semester and we are using your textbook! Thank you so much for creating this toolbox, it's very helpful :D

I am learning robotics and your tool is very helpful for me to understand the theory in a practical way.

my jaw just dropped, this is amazing work!

[jugalsheth]

Hats off to you both wonderful explanations
Thanks a ton

[HaraldEllingsen]

This is really impressive work you have done. Thank you for this!

So excited about this. Definitely will be playing with it, and looking forward to the new text.

that's awesome!!!! Thank you so much for this open and fantastic set of tools! Sadly, a lot of students cannot afford for some comercial softwares like MATLAB, and this work will be really important for the whole community <3 OPEN SOURCE POWER

How to do the same job using Openai Gym and Pybullet?? Though, I have tried but couldn't figure it out.

Hello, great work

I have an error when I try to plot the panda URDF string
the error shows in the web page like:
"Application error: a client-side exception has occurred (see the browser console for more information)"
I tried to follow some sollution but didnt work

any suggestion, thanks in advance.

Hello sir. I have the urdf with inertial parameters of a 6 DOF arm. How can implement the toolbox on pyhton to get the MCG matrices of the robot ? Thank you.

[arjunsavla]

Is it possible to calculate the Inertia Matrix, Friction Effect and Gravity effect of a robot, if you know the DH parameters, using the peter corke toolbox on Matlab? I have been struggling with this, please let me know if you have a solution. Thanks.

[dimitris]

Is there any way to speed up the visualizer?

[mailo]

Hi there!! What about the new book on robotics for phyton?

[mikkodetorres]

How can I install robotic toolbox in python?

Needs a name to make it easy to find and speak of... Some ideas... ROTOPY, ROBTOOPY... Great software. Thanks a lot for your work.
