What it does

  • Adds an rviz property for arbitrary sets of Euler angles, with conversion between them.
  • Adds an rviz property combining Euler angles and quaternions for flexible orientation input.
  • Provides an rviz display plugin that publishes transforms through an interactive marker, also usable for interactive frame transformations.
  • Offers a command-line static transform publisher adapted from tf2_ros with finer-grained options for Euler-angle orientations.
  • Offers an interactive GUI version of the static transform publisher for modifying transforms live.
