Generic6DOFJoint

Inherits: Joint < Spatial < Node < Object

The generic 6-degrees-of-freedom joint can implement a variety of joint types by locking certain axes’ rotation or translation.

Description

The first 3 DOF axes are linear axes, which represent translation of Bodies, and the latter 3 DOF axes represent the angular motion. Each axis can be either locked, or limited.
