# Pulse Tool Calibration Library

Utility library (ptc) and command line interface (ptc-cli) to calculate tool 
offset for Pulse Robotic Arm.

## Installation

Standalone library:

`pip3 install -U ptc`

Command line interface and library:

`pip3 install -U ptc-cli`

## Usage
Basic usage, assuming that you have followed installation step and installed the
`ptc-cli` package.

In order to determine the tool offset, you MUST provide at least 4 different 
positions, that represent the same point in space with tool installed.
The more points you give the better calibration precision could be achived.

The positions could be obtained using the `get_position()` method from 
`pulse-api` library and should be provided in a text file in the following 
order:

`x`, `y`, `z`, `roll`, `pitch`, `yaw`

Each position MUST be on a separate line and the values MUST be separated with
comas.

Calculation is performed using following command in terminal:

`ptc-cli --file /absolute/path/to/your/positions/file`

The output will be the calculated tool offset:

[`x_offset`, `y_offset`, `z_offset`]

This output could be used in the `change_tool_info` method of the `pulse-api`
library.

## Example

Sample file with robot positions located at `/home/user/sample.csv`:
```csv

```

Terminal command:

`ptc-cli --file /home/user/sample.csv`

Output:

```Calculated TCP offset: [0.00027102 0.00027103 0.10055737]```

To get more detailed output:

`ptc-cli --file /home/user/sample.csv --verbose`

Output:

```
Calculated TCP offset: [0.00027102 0.00027103 0.10055737]
