Description-en: Set of utilities to operate with the Robot OS tf lib
This package is part of Robot OS (ROS), and contains transform
library tools. Although tf is mainly a code library meant to be used
within ROS nodes, it comes with a large set of command-line tools
that assist in the debugging and creation of tf coordinate
frames. These tools include: static_transform_publisher,
tf_change_notifier, tf_echo, tf_empty_listener tf_monitor, tf_remap
and view_frames_tf
