# mdl_hyper2d

Create model of a hyper redundant planar manipulator

MDL_HYPER2D creates the workspace variable h2d which describes the kinematic characteristics of a serial link manipulator which at zero angles is a straight line in the XY plane. By default has 10 joints.

mdl_hyper2d(n) as above but creates a manipulator with n joints.

Also define the workspace vectors:

qz joint angle vector for zero angle configuration

R = mdl_hyper2d(n) functional form of the above, returns the SerialLink object.

[R,qz] = mdl_hyper2d(n) as above but also returns a vector of zero joint angles.

## Notes

- The manipulator in default pose is a straight line 1m long.
- Unlike most other mdl_xxx scripts this one is actually a function that behaves like a script and writes to the global workspace.
