Hello,

Is it possible to use an URDF File for the TF Function instead of hardcoding it?

Hey thanks for your answer. Sorry for my trivial question, but thats quite new for me. I am using the urdf with the joint_state and robot_state_publisher, but now I have the problem to correctly link the base frame to the map. Please see: http://answers.ros.org/question/65141/hector-mapping-frame-id

If you have a link in a urdf you can use tf with it. So why do you need a static transform then?
