+## roboview-from-csv
+Provides a kinematic chain description for [roboview](https://github.com/arcoslab/roboview), given a `.csv` file.
+
+### Install dependecies
+- [roboview](https://github.com/arcoslab/roboview)
+   - At time of writing, best use `vtk6` branch of <https://github.com/jgvictores/roboview> fork
+   - Requires [Python YARP](http://robots.uc3m.es/gitbook-installation-guides/install-yarp.html#install-bindings) and Python [KDL](http://robots.uc3m.es/gitbook-installation-guides/install-kdl.html) (PyKDL)
+- Examples hard-coded from https://github.com/roboticslab-uc3m/teo-developer-manual
+
+### Run
+```bash
+yarp server &
+./roboview roboview-from-csv.py
+```
