What problem does it solve?

Sensor frames in URDF must be defined so that every sensor has a valid TF chain; misalignment leads to incorrect data framing and degraded perception.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • URDF-based mounting: Define fixed joints to attach sensor frames to the robot, ensuring a consistent transform from base_link to sensor_link.
  • Frame conventions guidance: Distinguishes ROS body vs optical frames (e.g., camera optical frame) and provides origin offsets to align sensors with driver frame_ids.
  • Verification guidance: Commands to inspect TF frames and validate transforms to avoid data misplacement in RViz or perception pipelines.

Quick Start

Add a fixed joint in your URDF linking the sensor to its frame and set the origin to the sensor physical offset.
