Function Description

About Homogeneous Translation Type

Data type expressing robot's teaching position. This data type is expressed by three-dimensional space coordinates, a rotation angle and FIG elements representing robot figures. A rotation angle is expressed by each coordinate element of the orient vector and the approach vector. The number of elements is 10.

X, Y, Z
Coordinates of X, Y and Z axes from the work coordinate origin.
Ox, Oy, Oz
X-, Y-, and Z-axis elements of the orient vector.
Ax, Ay, Az
X-, Y-, and Z-axis elements of the approach vector.
FIG
FIG component representing the Robot Figure (6th-Axis, 4th-Axis).
