Member Function Documentation

MarkerArray Visualizer::createCylinders	(	const std::vector< CylindricalShell > &	list,
		const std::string &	frame
	)

Create a MarkerArray message from a list of cylindrical shells.

Parameters

list	the list of cylindrical shells
frame	the frame in which the shells are located

Definition at line 9 of file visualizer.cpp.

MarkerArray Visualizer::createHandleNumbers	(	const std::vector< std::vector< CylindricalShell > > &	handles,
		const std::string &	frame
	)

Create a MarkerArray message from a list of cylindrical shells.

Parameters

list	the list of cylindrical shells
frame	the frame in which the shells are located

Definition at line 68 of file visualizer.cpp.

void Visualizer::createHandles	(	const std::vector< std::vector< CylindricalShell > > &	handles,
		const std::string &	frame,
		std::vector< MarkerArray > &	marker_arrays,
		MarkerArray &	all_handle_markers
	)

Create a list of MarkerArray messages and a MarkerArray from a list of handles. The former represents each handle as a MarkerArray message, and the latter represents all handles in a single MarkerArray message.

Parameters

handles	the list of handles
frame	the frame in which the handles are located
marker_arrays	the resultant list of MarkerArray messages
all_handle_markers	the resultant single MarkerArray message that consists of all handles
