Detailed Description

This class sets the timestamps of a trajectory to enforce velocity, acceleration constraints. Initial/final velocities and accelerations may be specified in the trajectory. Velocity and acceleration limits are specified in the model.

This algorithm repeatedly fits a cubic spline, adjusts the timing intervals, and repeats until all constraints are satisfied. When finished, each trajectory waypoint will have the time set, as well as the velocities and accelerations for each joint. Since we fit to a cubic spline, the position, velocity, and acceleration will be continuous and within bounds. The jerk will be discontinuous.

To match the velocity and acceleration at the endpoints, the second and second-last point locations need to move. By default, two extra points are added to leave the original trajectory unaffected. If points are not added, the trajectory could potentially be faster, but the 2nd and 2nd-last points should be re-checked for collisions.

Migration notes: If migrating from Iterative Parabolic Time Parameterization, be aware that the velocity and acceleration limits are more strictly enforced using this technique. This means that time-parameterizing the same trajectory with the same velocity and acceleration limits, will result in a longer trajectory. If this is a problem, try retuning (increasing) the limits.
