class Polygon

Basic polygon shape class. For STOP/SLOWDOWN model it represents zone around the robot while for APPROACH model it represents robot footprint.

Subclassed by nav2_collision_monitor::Circle

Public Functions

Polygon(const nav2_util::LifecycleNode::WeakPtr &node, const std::string &polygon_name, const std::shared_ptr<tf2_ros::Buffer> tf_buffer, const std::string &base_frame_id, const tf2::Duration &transform_tolerance)

Polygon constructor.

Parameters:

  • node – Collision Monitor node pointer

  • polygon_name – Name of polygon

  • tf_buffer – Shared pointer to a TF buffer

  • base_frame_id – Robot base frame ID

  • transform_tolerance – Transform tolerance

virtual ~Polygon()

Polygon destructor.

bool configure()

Shape configuration routine. Obtains ROS-parameters related to shape object and creates polygon lifecycle publisher.

Returns:

True in case of everything is configured correctly, or false otherwise

void activate()

Activates polygon lifecycle publisher.

void deactivate()

Deactivates polygon lifecycle publisher.

std::string getName() const

Returns the name of polygon.

Returns:

Polygon name

ActionType getActionType() const

Obtains polygon action type.

Returns:

Action type for current polygon

int getMaxPoints() const

Obtains polygon maximum points to enter inside polygon causing no action.

Returns:

Maximum points to enter to current polygon and take no action

double getSlowdownRatio() const

Obtains speed slowdown ratio for current polygon. Applicable for SLOWDOWN model.

Returns:

Speed slowdown ratio

double getTimeBeforeCollision() const

Obtains required time before collision for current polygon. Applicable for APPROACH model.

Returns:

Time before collision in seconds

virtual void getPolygon(std::vector<Point> &poly) const

Gets polygon points.

Parameters:

poly – Output polygon points (vertices)

void updatePolygon()

Updates polygon from footprint subscriber (if any)

virtual int getPointsInside(const std::vector<Point> &points) const

Gets number of points inside given polygon.

Parameters:

points – Input array of points to be checked

Returns:

Number of points inside polygon. If there are no points, returns zero value.

double getCollisionTime(const std::vector<Point> &collision_points, const Velocity &velocity) const

Obtains estimated (simulated) time before a collision. Applicable for APPROACH model.

Parameters:

  • collision_points – Array of 2D obstacle points

  • velocity – Simulated robot velocity

Returns:

Estimated time before a collision. If there is no collision, return value will be negative.

void publish() const

Publishes polygon message into a its own topic.

Protected Functions

bool getCommonParameters(std::string &polygon_pub_topic)

Supporting routine obtaining ROS-parameters common for all shapes.

Parameters:

polygon_pub_topic – Output name of polygon publishing topic

Returns:

True if all parameters were obtained or false in failure case

virtual bool getParameters(std::string &polygon_pub_topic, std::string &footprint_topic)

Supporting routine obtaining polygon-specific ROS-parameters.

Parameters:

  • polygon_pub_topic – Output name of polygon publishing topic

  • footprint_topic – Output name of footprint topic. Empty, if no footprint subscription

Returns:

True if all parameters were obtained or false in failure case

bool isPointInside(const Point &point) const

Checks if point is inside polygon.

Parameters:

point – Given point to check

Returns:

True if given point is inside polygon, otherwise false
