Plotting body coordinate system in Matlab

Hello! I am working on a multibody system. Every rigid body has its own body coordinate system and I've been looking for a way to plot this coordinate systems. It should also move when the body is moving. Is there a function in Matlab? Couldn't find anything and would be thankful for any advice!! Best wishes Verena :)

Hi Verena, I'm a few years late, but hopefully this will help somebody in the future.

To plot each rigid body of your system, you could use my plotframe function on File Exchange. When each coordinate system moves, you could update its position with the UpdateFrame name-value argument, so that it animates.
