This release is directly accessible as a Debian package. Please see https://github.com/stack-of-tasks/pinocchio/wiki/installation for further details.
- Add Joint{Model,Data} classes based on Joint{Model,Data}Base and Joint{Model,Data}Variant. Those classes call directly the visitors and make Variant accessible throw methods
- Add partial Joint{Model,Data}Composite. They allow a stack of joints without adding any Inertia.
- Increase Frame class. Frames can be of several types (BODY, JOINT, SENSOR, etc) and reflect the robot tree as it appears in the URDF conventions. Frames have two attributes: parent which the direct Joint parent in the Joint tree, previousFrame which correspond to the parent Frame in the tree of Frames).
- Adding Python parser which is able to read models written in Python.
- Add algo checker to check the validity of a model.
- Improve documentation.
- Model has some methods deprecated. The default name has been removed.
- The Geometry classes have been updated and several methods have been set to deprecated. They now use Frames as parent instead of Joint directly: a Geometry is now supported by a BODY.
- Add active collision pair flags in GeomData which define the active collision pairs.
- Unify naming conventions (nframes, njoints, etc).
- The UDRF parser can now deal with more complex topologies. It properly handles the stack of geometries for each BODY.
- Improve packaging mainly around the Python part.

1.0.0 - 2015-04-03
The following algorithms are implemented. • Recursive Newton-Euler algorithm (RNEA, i.e inverse dynamics) • Composite Rigid Body algorithm (CRBA, i.e generalized inertia matrix) • Sparse Cholesky decomposition of the inertia matrix (for constrained forward-dynamics resolution) • Placement Jacobians (i.e application from configuration velocities to end-effector spatial velocities), along with computation of body placements, velocities and accelerations. • Center of mass and its Jacobian
The model can either be parsed from a URDF format or be created by appendending bodies. The following joint models are implemented. • Revolute X, Y, Z (optimized) and unaligned with Cartesian directions • Prismatic X, Y, Z • Spherical (with and withoug singularities) • FreeFlyer (i.e. no constraint, for mobile robots like humanoids -- using quaternion representation for the rotation) • Fixed (concatenation of two consecutive bodies)
