Package Summary
This package contains a set of conversion functions to convert common tf datatypes (point, vector, pose, etc) into semantically identical datatypes used by other libraries. The conversion functions make it easier for users of the transform library (tf) to work with the datatype of their choice. Currently this package has support for the Kinematics and Dynamics Library (KDL) and the Eigen matrix library. This package is stable, and will get integrated into tf in the next major release cycle (see roadmap).

Roadmap
We plan to replace this package with a more advanced template-based data conversion package, as part of the redesign of the tf API. See the geometry stack roadmap for more details.
