Finish script to transform Solidworks kinematics & dynamics to ROS conventions #7

Description

Feature Type

Adding new functionality to the project

Problem Description

The Reach datasheets describe the dynamics of the manipulators using Solidworks conventions. This is problematic for ROS-based software, which expects a different convention

Feature Description

I started implementing a script in scripts/transform_parameters.py to perform the transformations so that the URDF file can be populated with the correct values. This still needs to be completed. At the moment, I think it would be easiest to just print out the recomputed values.

Alternative Solutions

A cleaner solution would be to take a template file as an input and automatically populate the URDF with the computed values. This would make debugging and re-generating the parameters easier.
