#include <ArActionDesired.h>
This class is use by actions to report what want movement commands they want. The action resolver combines the ArActionDesired objects returned by different actions.
A brief summary follows. For a fuller explanation of actions, see Actions.
Different values are organized into different "channels". Translational (front/back) and rotational (right/left) movements are separate channels. Translational movement uses velocity, while rotational movement uses change in heading from current heading. Each channel has a strength value. Both translational and rotational movement have maximum velocities as well, that also have their own strengths.
The strength value reflects how strongly an action wants to do the chosen movement command, the resolver (ArResolver) will combine these strengths and figure out what to do based on them.
For all strength values there is a total of 1.0 combined strength avaliable. The range for strength is from 0 to 1. This is simply a convention that ARIA uses by default, if you don't like it, you could override this class the ArResolver class.
Note that for the different maximum/accel/decel values they take an additional argument of whether just to use the slowest speed, slowest accel, or fastest decel. By default these will just use safer values (slowest speed, slowest accel, fastest decel)... you can specify false on these for the old behavior. Note that if you're safest values then the strength is largely ignored though it is still tracked and must still be greater than MIN_STRENGTH to work and it is still capped at MAX_STRENGTH).

|
Accounts for robot heading, mostly internal. This accounts for the robots heading, and transforms the set heading on this actionDesired into a delta heading so it can be merged and averaged and the like
|
|
Adds another actionDesired into the mix to average. For a description of how to use this, see startAverage.
|
|
Ends the process of avereraging together different desireds. For a description of how to use this, see startAverage. |
|
This merges in the two different action values, accountForRobotHeading MUST be done before this is called (on both actions), since this merges their delta headings, and the deltas can't be known unless the account for angle is done.
|
|
Sets the delta heading (deg) and strength. If there's already a rotVel set this WILL NOT work.
|
|
Sets the absolute heading (deg). If there's already a rotVel set this WILL NOT work. This is a way to set the heading instead of using a delta, there is no get for this, because accountForRobotHeading MUST be called (this should be called by all resolvers, but if you want to call it you can, thats fine).
|
|
Sets the lateral acceleration (deg/sec/sec) and strength. This sets the lateral acceleration for this cycle (this is sent down to the robot). Check the ArRobot class notes for more details.
|
|
Sets the lateral deceleration (deg/sec/sec) and strength. This sets the lateral deceleration for this cycle (this is sent down to the robot). Check the ArRobot class notes for more details.
|
|
Sets the left lateral velocity (mm/sec) and strength. Note that there is only one actual velocity for lat vel, but instead of making people remember which way is left and right there are two functions, setLeftLatVel and setRightLatVel... all setRightLatVel does is flip the direction on the vel. You can set a negative left lat vel and thats the same as setting a positive right vel. You can do the same with setting a negative right vel to get a positive left vel.
|
|
Sets the maximum lateral velocity (deg/sec) and strength. This sets the maximum lateral velocity for this cycle. Check the ArRobot class notes for more details.

|

Sets the maximum velocity (+mm/sec) and strength. This sets the maximum positive velocity for this cycle. Check the ArRobot class notes for more details.
|
|
Sets the right lateral velocity (mm/sec) and strength.

Sets the rotational deceleration (deg/sec/sec) and strength. This sets the rotational deceleration for this cycle (this is sent down to the robot). Check the ArRobot class notes for more details.
|
|
Sets the rotational velocity. If there's already a delta heading or heading this WILL NOT work.

Sets the translation acceleration (deg/sec/sec) and strength. This sets the translation acceleration for this cycle (this is sent down to the robot). Check the ArRobot class notes for more details.
|
|
Sets the translation deceleration (deg/sec/sec) and strength. This sets the translation deceleration for this cycle (this is sent down to the robot). Check the ArRobot class notes for more details.
|
|
Sets the velocity (mm/sec) and strength.
|
|
Starts the process of avereraging together different desireds. There is a three step process for averaging actionDesireds together, first startAverage must be done to set up the process, then addAverage must be done with each average that is desired, then finally endAverage should be used, after that is done then the normal process of getting the results out should be done. |
