TransformStamped

header.frame_id is the parent frame; transform maps child_frame_id into it.

Example

One instance from the package's own test catalog; the output is its real repr().

TransformStamped(header=Header(stamp=1761600000.25, frame_id='camera_color_optical_frame'), child_frame_id='tool0', transform=Transform(translation=Vector3(x=0.4, y=-0.1, z=0.25), rotation=Quaternion(x=-0.10566871683993562, y=0.6991667342497077, z=0.10566871683993563, w=0.6991667342497078)))

Long arrays are cut after 16 values and say so with “…”.

Functions

Constructors

Classmethods and staticmethods: ways to build one.

from_dict

from Msg
from_dict(data: Mapping[str, Any]) -> M

No docstring.

Methods

Return new values; messages are never mutated.

inverse() -> TransformStamped

The same relation seen from the other side: parent and child swap, stamp is kept.

replace

from Msg
replace(**changes: Any) -> M

A copy with some fields changed. Validation runs again.

to_dict

from Msg
to_dict() -> dict[str, Any]

JSON-safe dict with a "_type" key; arrays keep their dtype and shape.

Uses

Types its fields refer to.
