Extract offset from translation

Since R2022a

Syntax

d = cartesianOffset(T)

Description

d = cartesianOffset(T) extracts the offset of the specified translation, T, and returns the offset in terms of Cartesian coordinates. The offset is resolved in the base frame of the translation.

Input Arguments

T — Translation to extract

object of subclass of simscape.multibody.Translation class

Translation to extract, specified as an object of a subclass of the simscape.multibody.Translation class.

Output Arguments

d — Offset of translation

simscape.Value([x y z],"Length unit") object

Offset of the translation, returned as a simscape.Value object that represents a 1-by-3 array with units of length. The units of the offset match the length unit used in the object specified by the T input argument. If T uses multiple length units, the offset uses the coarsest length unit. If T does not have a unit, the offset uses meters.
