# mdl_m16

Create model of Fanuc M16 manipulator

MDL_M16 is a script that creates the workspace variable mico which describes the kinematic characteristics of a Fanuc M16 manipulator using standard DH conventions.

Also define the workspace vectors:

qz | zero joint angle configuration
qr | vertical 'READY' configuration
qd | lower arm horizontal as per data sheet

## Notes

- SI units of metres are used.
- Unlike most other mdl_xxx scripts this one is actually a function that behaves like a script and writes to the global workspace.
