RoboSavvy's self-balance platform URDF model and meshes.
Customization
This package provides easy to use URDF xacro files which you can include to assemble your own robot model using the self-balance platform.
The platform macro is provided by the file: rsv_balance_description/urdf/urdf/balance.urdf.xacro and can be included in your URDF model as such:
<robot name="you_awesome_robot" xmlns:xacro="http://www.ros.org/wiki/xacro"> <xacro:include filename="$(find rsv_balance_description)/urdf/balance.urdf.xacro" /> <xacro:balance/> .. .. <your_awesome_robot_here> .. </robot>
As an example you can look at rsv_balance_description/urdf/urdf/robot.urdf.xacro, which puts on top a rod and a dummy weight of 5kg.
