Units of measurement in wholeBodyInterface #14

Closed traversaro closed 9 years ago

traversaro commented 10 years ago

In current wholeBodyInterface documentation a clear indication of the units of measurement of the physical quantities is missing. From the implementation I guess that we use SI units for every interface (so radians for angles). As this is very common source of errors and bugs, we should make a definite decision and write it down in documentation.

I agree with SI. Francesco
