Poses

Phobos allows to define, set and export poses of robots. Poses are sets of joint positions resulting in a certain posture of the system. Every robot defined in URDF has a rest pose, which is the posture resulting from all joints resting at their origin.

TODO is this still available? In order to define a pose, follow these steps:

1. Modify a robot's joints into the desired positions.
2. Select the joints which shall be included in the pose.
3. Click the Store Current Pose button in the Model editing panel. TODO Check image
4. Select your robot in the Robot drop-down menu. TODO Check image
5. Specify a name for the pose in the Pose Name text field. TODO Check image

To set a previously defined pose, do the following:

1. Click the Load Pose button in the Model editing panel. TODO Check image
2. Select your robot in the Robot drop-down menu.
3. Select the pose you want to set from the Pose Name drop-down menu.
