Typedefs

typedef typename Lie::SE<DIM>::light_type pose_t

TPose2D or TPose3D.

typedef typename Lie::SE<DIM>::type cpose_t

CPose2D or CPose3D.

typedef typename Lie::Euclidean<DIM>::light_type point_t

TPoint2D or TPoint3D.

Construction

CPoseInterpolatorBase()

Default ctor: empty sequence of poses.

Methods

void insert(const mrpt::Clock::time_point& t, const pose_t& p)

Inserts a new pose in the sequence.

It overwrites any previously existing pose at exactly the same time.

void insert(const mrpt::Clock::time_point& t, const cpose_t& p)

Overload (slower)

pose_t& interpolate(const mrpt::Clock::time_point& t, pose_t& out_interp, bool& out_valid_interp) const

Returns the pose at a given time, or interpolates using splines if there is not an exact match.

Parameters:

t	The time of the point to interpolate.
out_interp	The output interpolated pose.
out_valid_interp	Whether there was information enough to compute the interpolation.

Returns:

A reference to out_interp

void clear()

Clears the current sequence of poses.

void setMaxTimeInterpolation(const mrpt::Clock::duration& time)

Set value of the maximum time to consider interpolation.

If set to a negative value, the check is disabled (default behavior).

mrpt::Clock::duration getMaxTimeInterpolation()

Set value of the maximum time to consider interpolation.

bool getPreviousPoseWithMinDistance(const mrpt::Clock::time_point& t, double distance, pose_t& out_pose)

Get the previous CPose3D in the map with a minimum defined distance.

Returns:

true if pose was found, false otherwise

bool saveToTextFile(const std::string& s) const

Saves the points in the interpolator to a text file, with this format: Each row contains these elements separated by spaces:

• Timestamp: As a “double time_t”

• x y z: The 3D position in meters.

• yaw pitch roll: The angles, in radians

Returns:

true on success, false on any error.

See also:

loadFromTextFile

bool saveToTextFile_TUM(const std::string& s) const

Saves the points in the interpolator to a text file in the “TUM” dataset format: each row contains these elements separated by spaces:

• Timestamp: As a “double time_t”

• x y z: The 3D position in meters.

• q_x q_y q_z q_w: Quaternion

Returns:

true on success, false on any error.

See also:

loadFromTextFile, saveTextFile_TUM

bool saveInterpolatedToTextFile(const std::string& s, const mrpt::Clock::duration& period) const

Saves the points in the interpolator to a text file, with the same format that saveToTextFile, but interpolating the path with the given period in seconds.

Returns:

true on success, false on any error.

See also:

loadFromTextFile

bool loadFromTextFile(const std::string& s)

Loads from a text file, in the format described by saveToTextFile.

Parameters:

std::exception

On invalid file format

Returns:

true on success, false on any error.

bool loadFromTextFile_TUM(const std::string& s)

Loads from a text file, in the “TUM” dataset format.

Parameters:

std::exception

On invalid file format

Returns:

true on success, false on any error.

void getBoundingBox(point_t& minCorner, point_t& maxCorner) const

Computes the bounding box in all Euclidean coordinates of the whole path.

Parameters:

std::exception

On empty path

void setInterpolationMethod(TInterpolatorMethod method)

Change the method used to interpolate the robot path.

The default method at construction is “imSpline”.

See also:

getInterpolationMethod()

TInterpolatorMethod getInterpolationMethod() const

Returns the currently set interpolation method.

See also:

setInterpolationMethod()

void filter(unsigned int component, unsigned int samples)

Filters by averaging one of the components of the pose data within the interpolator.

The width of the filter is set by the number of samples.

Parameters:

component	[IN] The index of the component to filter: 0 (x), 1 (y), 2 (z), 3 (yaw), 4 (pitch) or 5 (roll)
samples	[IN] The width of the average filter.
