Joint
[source]¶ Base class for joints connecting two bodies.
In ODE,
Body
objects represent mass/inertia properties, whileJoint
andMotor
objects represent mathematical constraints that govern how specific pairs of bodies interact. For example, aBallJoint
that connects two bodies will force the anchor point for those two bodies to remain in the same location in world coordinates – any linear force that displaces one of the bodies will also cause a force to be applied to the second body, because of the constraint imposed by the ball joint. As another example, aSlider
that connects two bodies allows those two bodies to displace relative to one another along a single axis, but not to rotate with respect to one another – any torque applied to one body will also cause a torque to be applied to the other body.Constraints can be applied to angular degrees of freedom (e.g.,
AMotor
), linear degrees of freedom (e.g.,BallJoint
,LMotor
), or both (e.g.,PistonJoint
).Both joints and motors apply constraints to pairs of bodies, but they are quite different in many ways and so are represented using specific subclasses. This superclass is just a mixin to avoid repeating the getters and setters that are common between motors and joints.
