/** This class stores a time-stamped trajectory in SE(3) (CPose3D poses).
  *  It can also interpolate SE(3) poses over time using linear, splines or
  * SLERP interpolation, as set in CPose3DInterpolator::setInterpolationMethod()
  *  Usage:
  *   - Insert new poses into the sequence with CPose3DInterpolator::insert()
  *   - Query an exact/interpolated pose with
  * CPose3DInterpolator::interpolate().
  * Example:
  * \code
  * CPose3DInterpolator     path;
  *
  * path.setInterpolationMethod( mrpt::poses::imSplineSlerp );
  *
  * path.insert( t0, mrpt::poses::CPose3D(...) );
  * path.insert( t1, mrpt::math::TPose3D(...) ); // prefered (faster)
  *
  * mrpt::math::TPose3D p;
  * bool valid;
  *
  * cout << "Pose at t: " << path.interpolate(t,p,valid).asString() << endl;
  * \endcode
  *
  *  Time is represented with mrpt::Clock::time_point. See mrpt::system for
  * methods and utilities to manage these time references.
  *
  *  See TInterpolatorMethod for the list of interpolation methods. The default
  * method at constructor is "imLinearSlerp".
