class mrpt::obs::CObservationOdometry

An observation of the current (cumulative) odometry for a wheeled robot.

This kind of observation will only occur in a “observation-only” rawlog file, otherwise odometry are modeled with actions. Refer to the page on rawlogs.

Fields

mrpt::poses::CPose2D odometry

The absolute odometry measurement (IT IS NOT INCREMENTAL)

bool hasEncodersInfo {false}

“true” means that “encoderLeftTicks” and “encoderRightTicks” contain valid values.

int32_t encoderLeftTicks {0}

For differential-driven robots: The ticks count for each wheel in ABSOLUTE VALUE (IT IS NOT INCREMENTAL) (positive means FORWARD, for both wheels);.

See also:

hasEncodersInfo

bool hasVelocities {false}

“true” means that velocityLocal contains valid values.

mrpt::math::TTwist2D velocityLocal

Velocity, in the robot (local) frame of reference (+X=forward).

Construction

CObservationOdometry()

Default ctor.

Constructor.

Methods

virtual void getSensorPose(mrpt::poses::CPose3D& out_sensorPose) const

A general method to retrieve the sensor pose on the robot.

Note that most sensors will return a full (6D) CPose3D, but see the derived classes for more details or special cases.

See also:

setSensorPose

virtual void setSensorPose(const mrpt::poses::CPose3D& newSensorPose)

A general method to change the sensor pose on the robot.

Note that most sensors will use the full (6D) CPose3D, but see the derived classes for more details or special cases.

See also:

getSensorPose

virtual void getDescriptionAsText(std::ostream& o) const

Build a detailed, multi-line textual description of the observation contents and dump it to the output stream.

If overried by derived classes, call base CObservation::getDescriptionAsText() first to show common information.

This is the text that appears in RawLogViewer when selecting an object in the dataset

virtual bool exportTxtSupported() const

Must return true if the class is exportable to TXT/CSV files, in which case the other virtual methods in this group must be redefined too.

virtual std::string exportTxtHeader() const

Returns the description of the data columns.

Timestamp is automatically included as the first column, do not list it. See example implementations if interested in enabling this in custom CObservation classes. Do not include newlines.

virtual std::string exportTxtDataRow() const

Returns one row of data with the data stored in this particular object.

Do not include newlines.
