    writeAsFunction(robot,filename)

    Description

    writeAsFunction(robot,filename) creates a function file that constructs the rigidBodyTree object. The created function supports code generation.

    Load a robot model as a rigidBodyTree object. 

    robot = loadrobot("kinovaGen3")
    robot = 
  rigidBodyTree with properties:

     NumBodies: 8
        Bodies: {[1×1 rigidBody]  [1×1 rigidBody]  [1×1 rigidBody]  [1×1 rigidBody]  [1×1 rigidBody]  [1×1 rigidBody]  [1×1 rigidBody]  [1×1 rigidBody]}
          Base: [1×1 rigidBody]
     BodyNames: {'Shoulder_Link'  'HalfArm1_Link'  'HalfArm2_Link'  'ForeArm_Link'  'Wrist1_Link'  'Wrist2_Link'  'Bracelet_Link'  'EndEffector_Link'}
      BaseName: 'base_link'
       Gravity: [0 0 0]
    DataFormat: 'struct'
    FrameNames: {'base_link'  'Shoulder_Link'  'HalfArm1_Link'  'HalfArm2_Link'  'ForeArm_Link'  'Wrist1_Link'  'Wrist2_Link'  'Bracelet_Link'  'EndEffector_Link'}

    Show the robot model in a figure.

    show(robot);

    Figure contains an axes object. The axes object with xlabel X, ylabel Y contains 25 objects of type patch, line.

    Create a code generating function that constructs the rigidBodyTree object.

    writeAsFunction(robot,'KG3Codegen')

    Construct the robot model using the generated function.

    rbt = KG3Codegen
    rbt = 
  rigidBodyTree with properties:

     NumBodies: 8
        Bodies: {[1×1 rigidBody]  [1×1 rigidBody]  [1×1 rigidBody]  [1×1 rigidBody]  [1×1 rigidBody]  [1×1 rigidBody]  [1×1 rigidBody]  [1×1 rigidBody]}
          Base: [1×1 rigidBody]
     BodyNames: {'Shoulder_Link'  'HalfArm1_Link'  'HalfArm2_Link'  'ForeArm_Link'  'Wrist1_Link'  'Wrist2_Link'  'Bracelet_Link'  'EndEffector_Link'}
      BaseName: 'base_link'
       Gravity: [0 0 0]
    DataFormat: 'struct'
    FrameNames: {'base_link'  'Shoulder_Link'  'HalfArm1_Link'  'HalfArm2_Link'  'ForeArm_Link'  'Wrist1_Link'  'Wrist2_Link'  'Bracelet_Link'  'EndEffector_Link'}

    Show the robot model in a figure.

    show(rbt);

    Figure contains an axes object. The axes object with xlabel X, ylabel Y contains 17 objects of type patch, line.

    Input Arguments

    collapse all

    Robot model, specified as a rigidBodyTree object.
