Description

Robot model descriptions in URDF XML can be parsed into C++ data structures with this ROS-adjacent library. urdfdom is for robotics developers loading links, joints, geometry, and robot metadata from URDF files.

Validate URDF files before feeding them into planning or control stacks. Bad robot descriptions can misrepresent geometry, transforms, limits, collision models, and downstream simulation or hardware behavior.
