class mrpt::slam::CRejectionSamplingRangeOnlyLocalization

An implementation of rejection sampling for generating 2D robot pose from range-only measurements within a landmarks (beacons) map.

Before calling the method “rejectionSampling” to generate the samples, you must call “setParams”. It is assumed a planar scenario, where the robot is at a fixed height (default=0).

Methods

bool setParams(
    const mrpt::maps::CLandmarksMap& beaconsMap,
    const mrpt::obs::CObservationBeaconRanges& observation,
    float sigmaRanges,
    const mrpt::poses::CPose2D& oldPose,
    float robot_z = 0,
    bool autoCheckAngleRanges = true
    )

The parameters used in the generation of random samples:

Parameters:

beaconsMap	The map containing the N beacons (indexed by their “beacon ID”s). Only the mean 3D position of the beacons is used, the covariance is ignored.
observation	An observation with, at least ONE range measurement.
sigmaRanges	The standard deviation of the “range measurement noise”.
robot_z	The height of the robot on the floor (default=0). Note that the beacon sensor on the robot may be at a different height, according to data within the observation object.
autoCheckAngleRanges	Whether to make a simple check for potential good angles from the beacons to generate samples (disable to speed-up the preparation vs. making slower the drawn). This method fills out the member “m_dataPerBeacon”.

Returns:

true if at least ONE beacon has been successfully loaded, false otherwise. In this case do not call “rejectionSampling” or an exception will be launch, since there is no information to generate samples.
