Parameters

ParameterTypeDefaultDescription
datanp.ndarray | list | tupleRequiredForce and torque [fx, fy, fz, tx, ty, tz] with shape (6,).

Raises

ExceptionCondition
TypeErrordata can't be converted to float32 (e.g. non-numeric elements)
ValueErrordata is not rank-1, or its shape isn't (6,)
ValueErrordata contains a non-finite value (NaN/Inf)

Attributes

AttributeTypeDescription
datanp.ndarrayDefensive copy of the underlying (6,) float32 array. Assigning a new value re-validates it the same way as construction.
shapetuple[int, ...]Always (6,).
ndimintAlways 1.
dtypenp.dtypeAlways float32.
sizeintAlways 6.

Methods

MethodTypeDescription
Wrench3D.coerce(value)Wrench3DConverts array-like data into a Wrench3D. If value is already a Wrench3D, it is returned unchanged; otherwise it goes through the same checks as constructing one directly.
to_numpy(copy=True)np.ndarrayReturns the wrench as a plain array. With the default copy=True you get an independent copy; pass copy=False to get a direct reference to the internal array instead, so mutating it also mutates the Wrench3D.
copy()Wrench3DReturns a new, independent Wrench3D with the same data.

Operators

OperationBehavior
w == otherTrue only if other is also a Wrench3D with element-equal data. False for anything else.
len(w)Always 6.
np.asarray(w)Returns a copy of data as an np.ndarray; NumPy functions accept a Wrench3D directly.

Visualization

python
import rerun as rr

# Your code block
# ....

rr.init("wrench3d_example", spawn=True)
datatypes.visualize(wrench, entity_path="/wrench", label="Wrench3D")
