DtVrfObject owner,
DtSimManager simManager,
DtComponentDescriptor desc = 0,
DtReaderWriterRegistry parentRegistry = 0 
)

protected

copy constructor; shallow; does not copy the ports.

Member Function Documentation

virtual const char* DtHumanFollowController::type ( ) const
virtual

Returns a string identifies the class type of component.

Type values are defined in compTypes.h. DtSimComponent creation functions are registered with the DtSimComponentFactory using the type values as the key. Warning: this function should always return the same pointer and it should be valid forever. This means the data should be static.

Returns
DtHumanFollowControllerType

Implements DtTaskControllerComponent.

virtual bool DtHumanFollowController::init ( )
virtual

Init. Call immediately after construction.

Reimplemented from DtControllerComponent.

virtual bool DtHumanFollowController::createPSR ( )
virtual

Creates myProcessState data member, and adds it to our process state repository manager.

Passes in the name and type specified in the component descriptor (if they exist) to the DtVrfProcessStateRepository::createRepository factory method. If name and/or type is not specified, uses the appropriate default strings defined in procSRTypes.h.

virtual void DtHumanFollowController::tick ( )
virtual

Calculate new control values.

Reimplemented from DtSimComponent.

static void DtHumanFollowController::followEntityCallback ( DtSimMessage msg,
void *  usrData 
)
static

Instances of this component will register this callback with their own 'this' pointer as user data with the msg executive requesting notification of move-to tasks.

virtual void DtHumanFollowController::processFollowEntityTask ( DtSimMessage msg)
virtual
virtual const DtUUID& DtHumanFollowController::entityToFollow ( )
virtual

What entity are we following? This accessor has the side effect of setting myProcessState->myEntityToFollow to DtString::nullString(), if the entity is not tasked and myEntityToFollow is not already the null string.

virtual void DtHumanFollowController::setEntityToFollow ( const DtUUID entity)
virtual
virtual const DtVector& DtHumanFollowController::offsetVector ( ) const
virtual

The offset from the entity's position to follow at, in entity coordinates.

This comes from the follow task message.

virtual void DtHumanFollowController::setOffsetVector ( const DtVector offsets)
virtual
static DtSimComponent* DtHumanFollowController::creator ( const DtString name,
DtVrfObject owner,
DtSimManager simManager,
DtComponentDescriptor desc = 0,
DtReaderWriterRegistry parentRegistry = 0 
)
static

Parameters
nameReader writer name of this component.
ownerThe DtVrfObject that owns this component
simManagerThe simulation manager (provides access to terrain, message interface, simulation clock).
descThe component descriptor used to initialize this component.
parentRegistryPointer to the parent reader writer registry (the containing object that reads/writes this object).
Returns
New instance of this class.
virtual void DtHumanFollowController::registerTaskMsgCallbacks ( )
virtual

Overrides this so it can register its interest in followEntity commands.

Reimplemented from DtTaskControllerComponent.

virtual bool DtHumanFollowController::setupDestination ( )
virtual

Sets the world destination in the process state repository to the location of the entity we're following plus the indicated offset and then calls down to the base class.


Creates a smoother if one does not exist.
Also computes myLookAheadStationLocation by adding leader velocity * destinationSmoothingPeriod (from the descriptor) to the station position, i.e. myLocalDestination; then calls setSmoother().
If the station location (myLocalDestination) has changed since last tick, sets myPredictedDestination by calling predictedDestination(), then checks to see if the nav (path planning) interface should be given a new destination by calling needToUpdateNavInterfaceDestination(). If so,

virtual bool DtHumanFollowController::passedDestination ( )
virtual

Overrides to force the entity to be near the destination as well as across the 'destination' line to be considered past the destination.

virtual double DtHumanFollowController::findDesiredSpeed ( )
virtual

Overrides so we can speed up when falling behind and slow down if we get past the position we're supposed to be in.

virtual double DtHumanFollowController::findDesiredHeading ( )
virtual

Overrides so the entity won't turn toward the destination point when it is close to or past the destination; rather, in these cases, it assumes the heading of the lead entity.

virtual void DtHumanFollowController::stop ( )
virtual

Overrides so we don't complete the task when we're at the right location with regard to the followed entity.

Simply calls DtGroundMoveToControllerComponent::doMoving().

virtual void DtHumanFollowController::clearTask ( )
virtual

If component is currently tasked, calls clearPendingSubtasks(), sets the tasked flag to false, and calls clearCurrentTaskMesage() to clear out the current task message.

Reimplemented from DtSingleTaskControllerComponent.

const DtHumanFollowController& DtHumanFollowController::operator= ( const DtHumanFollowController orig)
protected

assignment operator; see comments on copy constructor!

virtual void DtHumanFollowController::setSmoother ( const DtVector location)
protectedvirtual

Sets the current location, velocity and acceleration in the smoother.

In this implementation, the location argument is used as the location, and the leader velocity and acceleration are used for those parameters. "Current" time is sim time. The smoother used is DtTrigonometricSmoother myLeaderSmoother.
Called from setupDestination().

virtual DtVector DtHumanFollowController::smoothedLocation ( )
protectedvirtual

Gets the smoothed location from the smoother at the current time (sim time).

If the leader speed is below a threshold (0.1 m/s), then the station location is used.
In this implementation, the smoother used is DtTrigonometricSmoother myLeaderSmoother. This function can be overridden if another smoothing approach is desired.

virtual DtVector DtHumanFollowController::constrainedStation ( DtVrfObjectStateRepository leaderState,
const DtVector position 
)
protectedvirtual

Assumes the nav bot is being used.

virtual bool DtHumanFollowController::nearDestination ( )
protectedvirtual

Determines if the entity is close enough to the destination that it should start slowing down (see findDesiredSpeed()).

If the distance to the destination is less than the near distance in the descriptor, myNearDestination is set true. myNearDestination is also the return value.

virtual double DtHumanFollowController::distanceToDestination ( ) const
protectedvirtual

This is the distance to the station, i.e.

leader position + offset. The value returned is the SQUARE of the 2D distance (horizontal in topo coordinates).

virtual DtVector DtHumanFollowController::localDestination ( ) const
protectedvirtual

This is the station (leader + offset) in local coordinates, run through the smoother; unless using the nav interface and there is a valid transition point (see DtActiveBotNavInterface), in which case that is the local destination.

virtual bool DtHumanFollowController::getDestination ( DtVector destination) const
protectedvirtual

getDestination()

Parameters
destination(Output) The position this object is trying to drive to in local coordinates. Calls localDestination().
Returns
true always.
virtual bool DtHumanFollowController::atDestination ( )
protectedvirtual

Are we within the at-distance parameter to the destination? If the myDistanceSquared member calculated in tick() is less than or equal to the square of the value provided in the at-distance parameter of the DtGroundMoveToDescriptor, atDestination() sets myAtDestination to true.

If the myDistanceSquared !<= at-distance, atDestination() sets myAtDestination to false. myAtDestination is returned to the calling function.

virtual void DtHumanFollowController::doMoving ( )
protectedvirtual

Calls determineGearSetting(), findDesiredSpeed() and findDesiredHeading() and then sets port values based on those results.

virtual bool DtHumanFollowController::destinationIsInsideObstruction ( const DtVector localDestination) const
protectedvirtual

Returns whether or not current destination is inside an obstruction.

virtual bool DtHumanFollowController::createPortGroups ( )
protectedvirtual

Creates and initializes port groups.

Reimplemented from DtSimComponent.

virtual bool DtHumanFollowController::createPorts ( )
protectedvirtual

Creates myDestinationOutputPort.

Reimplemented from DtSimComponent.

virtual void DtHumanFollowController::moveToDestination ( )
protectedvirtual

Attempts to move to the destination location. Override to provide movement functionality.

virtual void DtHumanFollowController::computeTopoVectors ( )
protectedvirtual

Computes myTopoDestinationMoveUnit and myTopoDestinationToEntity for use in desiredHeading and desiredSpeed.

Uses myLocalDestinationMove and the entity location.

virtual bool DtHumanFollowController::usingNavBot ( )
protectedvirtual
Returns
True if the controller is currently using the navigation system bot to control movement.
virtual void DtHumanFollowController::moveUsingNavData ( )
protectedvirtual

Uses calculations from the navBot to control the entity or end the task.

Assumes that myNavInterface is valid and that myIgnoreNavData is false.

static void DtHumanFollowController::navAreaChangedCallback ( void *  usr)
staticprotected
virtual void DtHumanFollowController::processNavAreaChanged ( )
protectedvirtual
virtual bool DtHumanFollowController::needToUpdateNavInterfaceDestination ( const DtVector newLocalDestination)
protectedvirtual

Determine if the navBot (path planning) interface needs to be reset with a new destination.

virtual DtVector DtHumanFollowController::predictedDestination ( )
protectedvirtual

Gets a goal (destination) location to use as the target for moving.

If there is a myLeaderSmoother, then this location is obtained from the smoother. Otherwise, the myLocalDestination is used (i.e., the station relative to the leader). Once this location is determined, the ground elevation at that point is found, and that is the (3D) point returned.

virtual void DtHumanFollowController::updateTaskVisualizations ( )
protectedvirtual

Called to update task visualizations after every tick.

Implemented by subclasses.

Reimplemented from DtSimComponent.

double DtHumanFollowController::myFarCatchUpFactor
protected

Multiplicative factor used to compute the appropriate speed when we need to catch up to the entity we're following and we're far from where we need to be.

'Far' means we're outside of the near distance from our follow position. Our entity's ordered speed is multiplied by this factor to produce our desired speed in this case. Default value: 1.5

bool DtHumanFollowController::myIgnoreNavData
protected

Used to force the navigation interface to be ignored.

This is useful when the nav interface has given us a partial path to the destination (for example, if we're in a nav area but our destination is outside the nav area). This flag is set true when the entity leaves a nav area. Once set, gets reset when any of the following happen:
1) A new task is issued
2) The destination location changes
3) A set location occurs
4) The entity moves to a new navArea.
