Detailed Description

A class that treats the robot's bumpers as a range device.

The class treats bumpers like a range device. When a bumper is bumped, it reports the approximate position of the bump in a buffer. The positions are kept current for a specified length of time.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ArBumpers::ArBumpers size_t  currentBufferSize = 30,
size_t  cumulativeBufferSize = 30,
const char *  name = "bumpers",
int  maxSecondsToKeepCurrent = 15,
double  angleRange = 135
 

Parameters:
currentBufferSize The number of readings to store in the current Buffer
cumulativeBufferSize The number of readings in the cumulative buffer (This currently is not being used)
name The name of this range device
maxSecondsToKeepCurrent How long to keep readings in the current buffer
angleRange the range in front and behind the robot which is divided by the number of bumpers and used to detrmine where the sensor readings will be placed.
