chrono::sensor::ChGPSSensor Class Reference

Description

GPS class.

This class uses the reference location of a simulation and spherically maps the cartesian space simulation onto a sphere, calculating the latitude, longitude, altitude relative to the Earth's surface. The reference location defines what GPS coordinates are associated with the origin of the simulation. The mapping is performed such that the +Z-axis points up, +X-axis points East, and the +Y-axis points North.

Class constructor.

Parameters
parentBody to which the sensor is attached.
updateRateRate at which the sensor should update.
offsetPoseRelative position and orientation of the sensor with respect to its parent object.
lagLag time between end of data collection and when data becomes available to the user.
collection_windowCollection time over which the sensor should collect data from the simulation.
gps_referenceReference location in GPS coordinates (longitude, latitude, altitude) of simulation origin
noise_modelThe noise model that should be used for augmenting the GPS data.
