class mrpt::opengl::CPlanarLaserScan

This object renders a 2D laser scan by means of three elements: the points, the line along end-points and the 2D scanned surface.

By default, all those three elements are drawn, but you can individually switch them on/off with:

To change the final result, more methods allow further customization of the 3D object (color of each element, etc.).

The scan is passed or updated through CPlanarLaserScan::setScan()

The laser points are projected at the sensor pose as given in the “scan” object, so this CPlanarLaserScan object should be placed at the exact pose of the robot coordinates origin.

Methods

virtual void render(const RenderContext& rc) const

Implements the rendering of 3D objects in each class derived from CRenderizable.

This can be called more than once (one per required shader program) if the object registered several shaders.

See also:

renderUpdateBuffers

virtual void renderUpdateBuffers() const

Called whenever m_outdatedBuffers is true: used to re-generate OpenGL vertex buffers, etc.

before they are sent for rendering in render()

virtual void freeOpenGLResources()

Free opengl buffers.

virtual shader_list_t requiredShaders() const

Returns the ID of the OpenGL shader program required to render this class.

See also:

DefaultShaderID

virtual void onUpdateBuffers_Wireframe()

Must be implemented in derived classes to update the geometric entities to be drawn in “m_*_buffer” fields.

virtual void onUpdateBuffers_Triangles()

Must be implemented in derived classes to update the geometric entities to be drawn in “m_*_buffer” fields.

virtual void onUpdateBuffers_Points()

Must be implemented in derived classes to update the geometric entities to be drawn in “m_*_buffer” fields.

virtual mrpt::math::TPoint3Df getLocalRepresentativePoint() const

Provide a representative point (in object local coordinates), used to sort objects by eye-distance while rendering with transparencies (Default=[0,0,0])

void clear()

Clear the scan.

void enablePoints(bool enable = true)

Show or hides the scanned points.

See also:

sePointsWidth, setPointsColor

void enableLine(bool enable = true)

Show or hides lines along all scanned points.

See also:

setLineWidth, setLineColor

void enableSurface(bool enable = true)

Show or hides the scanned area as a 2D surface.

See also:

setSurfaceColor

virtual auto getBoundingBox() const

Evaluates the bounding box of this object (including possible children) in the coordinate frame of the object parent.
