Custom kins component was created by dimech
I would like to make a component for the inverse kinematics of my robot arm.
Comp HAL component generator seems ideal for me (I am new in programming)

Do i need put it in a function or make pins?
I think, I have to take the word origins from trajectory planner, execute the maths and return the joints.

How l create a component without function or pins?

Also do I have to consider my limits for each joint in the kinematics script or mention them in the ini file is enough
Thank you in advance!

Unfortunately it is not that simple.

The best thing to do will be to download the source via git
git clone git://git.linuxcnc.org/git/linuxcnc.git

Then look at
linuxcnc/src/emc/kinematics/pumakins.c

That is a robot kinematics component and can be used as a starting point for yours.

The best place to build it is going to be in the sources, so learning curve straight upwards :laugh:

what type of robot is it ? the kinematics may already be available

It is a 5DOF serial manipulator. Probably genserkins fits perfect but it is a final year project and my professor want it custom for educational purposes

there's also Pumakins kinematics . a puma560 robot arm
and Scarakins which if i am correct is 6dof , although i'm not 100% sure

also follow this post may assist you

You can compile and install a kinematics module written in C with comp (which has been renamed to halcompile). However you can't write a kinematics module in the .comp format.

Your best option is to take an existing kinematics module as a starting point and edit that to do what you want. Trivkins might be a good start if you expect to hard-code the geometry values. If you need the kinematics to read inputs from HAL then you would need to look at other kinematics files to see how to do that.

The kins files all live here:
git.linuxcnc.org/gitweb?p=linuxcnc.git;a...024fbf48539d;hb=HEAD

Trivkins #includes kinematics.h, and linuxcnc-dev installs that file (and lots of other headers) so it may be possible to compile with comp/halcompile without grabbing the full source code, but you might want to anyway.

Thank you all for the advises!

I wrote the kinematic module based on puma's kinematics and compiled with these four warnings

WARNING: "pmQuatRpyConvert" [/tmp/tmp4gGq_S/rm501kins.ko] undefined!
WARNING: "pmRpyQuatConvert" [/tmp/tmp4gGq_S/rm501kins.ko] undefined!
WARNING: "pmPoseHomConvert" [/tmp/tmp4gGq_S/rm501kins.ko] undefined!
WARNING: "pmHomPoseConvert" [/tmp/tmp4gGq_S/rm501kins.ko] undefined!


and when I am loading the component this message appears

halcmd: loadrt rm501kins
insmod: error inserting '/usr/realtime-3.4-9-rtai-686-pae/modules/linuxcnc/rm501kins.ko': -1 Unknown symbol in module
<stdin>:2: exit value: 1
<stdin>:2: insmod failed, returned -1
See the output of 'dmesg' for more information.


I took pumakins from git.linuxcnc.org and recompile the pumakins component . Exact the same warnings appeared
Also I cannot load pumakins anymore!

Do I have to define somehow the pmQuatRpyConvert, pmRpyQuatConvert, pmPoseHomConvert, pmHomPoseConvert ?

I am attaching the rm501kins c & h file.

I _think_ that you need to have the full source tree installed to use posemath.h.

At this point you might as well install git, grab the sources and do a full run-in-place build.

wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Instal..._or_8_04_from_source

(this only seems to cover Ubuntu 10.04 but I don't think that things are significantly different on 12,04, 14 or Debain Wheezy)

I followed the steps from the wiki and a linuxcnc-dev directory appeared but still i can't load rm501

Could you explain what "full run-in-place build" means.

cd linuxcnc-dev/src
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
sudo make setuid

then

cd..
. ./scripts/rip-environment

ie. compile a complete new version of LinuxCNC in a stand-alone directory separate from the installed version.
