For interfacing with STL 3D model files (ASCII format). Import STLs to describe robot link geometries or export STLs to visualise EABM results in other softwares.
Do not expect this module to be kept up to date, largely this is a proof of concept - provided 'as is', but as I use it I will endeavour to make it useable.
Use one STL per link geometry, each with one solid only. The first line should be comprised as solid x y z encoding the coordinates of the segment output. The segment input is the origin, 0 0 0.
Every articulation properties struct must have an stl_properties <: STLProperties attribute. For instance DesignedSTL <: STLProperties allows the STL description of that articulation to use an imported STL. Or PrismaticSTL <: STLProperties, currently in development, which will be used for writing geometry of multiple articulations as one filamentous component.
