This AssemblyCondition specifies a correspondence between orientation sensors fixed on mobilized bodies ("osensors") and Ground-relative orientation sensor readings ("observations").
Each osensor represents the three orthogonal axis directions of a frame fixed to a mobilized body; only orientation and not location is represented. Orientation sensing is commonly performed by Inertial Measurements Units (IMUs). The behavior here is designed to be as similar as possible to position sensors handled by the Markers AssemblyCondition. You can combine OrientationSensors and Markers on the same body.
The idea is to adjust the q's so that each osensor is oriented similarly to its corresponding observation. This is normally used as a goal since we don't expect to be able to obtain a perfect match, but you can use these as a set of assembly error conditions if there are enough degrees of freedom to achieve a near-perfect solution.
Osensors are defined one at a time and assigned sequential index values of type OrientationSensors::OSensorIx. They may optionally be given unique, case-sensitive names, and we will keep a map from name to OSensorIx. A default name will be assigned if none is given. A weight is assigned to every osensor, with default weight=1. We do not expect that all the osensors will be used; osensors with weights of zero will not be included in the study, nor will osensors for which no observation is given.
Once specified, the osensor definitions do not change during a series of inverse kinematic (tracking) steps. The observations, on the other hand, are expected to come from a time series of experimental measurements of osensor orientations and will be different at every step. They typically come from a file organized by "frame", meaning an observation time and a set of observed orientations, one per sensor, corresponding to that time. During initial setup, the number of observations per frame and their correspondence to the defined osensors is specified. They can be in any order, may skip some osensors, and may include data for osensors that are not defined. However, once initialized each frame must supply the same information in the same order. Data for an unobserved osensor can be provided as NaN in which case it will be ignored in that frame. The frame time is supplied to the track() method which initiates assembly for a frame.
Observation-osensor correspondence maps an ObservationIx to a unique OSensorIx. By default, we'll expect to get an observation for each osensor and that the observation order and the osensor order are the same, i.e. ObservationIx==OSensorIx for every osensor. However, you can instead define observation/osensor correspondence yourself, (after all osensors have been defined), via one of the defineObservationOrder() methods. This is done by supplying an array of OSensorIx values, or an array of osensor names, with the array elements ordered by ObservationIx. Any invalid osensor index or unrecognized osensor name means we will ignore values provide for that observation; similarly, any osensors whose index or name is not specified at all will be ignored.

The default constructor creates an empty OrientationSensors AssemblyCondition object that should be filled in with calls to addOSensor() and optionally defineObservationOrder().
SimTK::OrientationSensors::SimTK_DEFINE_UNIQUE_LOCAL_INDEX_TYPE | ( | OrientationSensors | , |
OSensorIx | |||
) |
Define the OSensorIx type which is just a uniquely-typed int.
SimTK::OrientationSensors::SimTK_DEFINE_UNIQUE_LOCAL_INDEX_TYPE | ( | OrientationSensors | , |
ObservationIx | |||
) |
Define the ObservationIx type which is just a uniquely-typed int.
|
inline |
Define a new orientation sensor (osensor) attached to a particular MobilizedBody.
Note that an osensor will be ignored unless an observation is provided for it.
[in] | name | A unique name to be used to identify this osensor. If the name is empty or blank, a default name will be supplied. |
[in] | bodyB | The MobilizedBody to which this osensor is fixed. OSensors on Ground are allowed but will be ignored. |
[in] | orientationInB | This is the orientation of the osensor in bodyB's local frame. |
[in] | weight | An optional weight for use in defining the objective function, which combines errors in this osensor's orientation with errors in other osensors' orientation. If the weight is zero this osensor is ignored. |
|
inline |
Define an unnamed osensor.
A default name will be assigned; that name will be "_UNNAMED_XX" where XX is the OSensorIx assigned to that osensor (don't use names of that form yourself).
|
inline |
Define the meaning of the observation data by giving the OSensorIx associated with each observation.
The length of the array of osensor indices defines the expected number of observations to be provided for each observation frame. Any osensor index that is supplied with an invalid value means that the corresponding observation will be present in the supplied data but should be ignored.
[in] | observationOrder | This is an array of osensor index values, one per observation, that defines both the number of expected observations and the osensor corresponding to each observation. OSensors can be in any order; an invalid osensor index means that observation will be provided but should be ignored; osensors whose indices are never listed are ignored. If observationOrder is supplied as a zero-length array, then we'll assume there are as many observations as osensors and that their indices match. |
|
inline |
Define the meaning of the observations by giving the osensor name corresponding to each observation, as a SimTK::Array_<String>.
The length of the array of osensor indices defines the expected number of observations. Any osensor name that is unrecognized or empty means that the corresponding observation will be present in the supplied data but should be ignored.

|
inline |
Return a count n of the number of currently-defined osensors.
Valid osensor index values (of type OrientationSensors::OSensorIx) are 0..n-1.
|
inline |
Return the unique osensor name assigned to the osensor whose index is provided.
If the osensor was defined without a name, this will return the default name that was assigned to it.
|
inline |
Return the osensor index associated with the given osensor name.
If the name is not recognized the returned index will be invalid (test with index.isValid()).
|
inline |
Get the weight currently in use for the specified osensor; this can be changed dynamically via changeOSensorWeight().
|
inline |
Get the MobilizedBodyIndex of the body associated with this osensor.
|
inline |
Get the orientation (coordinate axes fixed in its body frame) of the given osensor.
|
inline |
Return the number of observations that were defined via the last call to defineObservationOrder().
These are not necessarily all being used. If defineObservationOrder() was never called, we'll expect the same number of observations as osensors although that won't be set up until the Assembler has been initialized.
|
inline |
Return the ObservationIx of the observation that is currently associated with the given osensor, or an invalid index if the osensor doesn't have any corresponding observation (in which case it is being ignored).
An exception will be thrown if the given OSensorIx is not in the range 0..getNumOSensors()-1.

|
inline |
Move a single osensor's observed orientation without moving any of the others.
If the value contains a NaN, this osensor/observation pair will be ignored the next time the assembly goal cost function is calculated.
|
inline |
Set the observed osensor orientations for a new observation frame.
These are the orientations to which we will next attempt to rotate all the corresponding osensors. Note that not all observations necessarily have corresponding osensors defined; orientations of those osensors must still be provided here but they will be ignored. The length of the allObservations array must be the same as the number of defined observations; you can obtain that using getNumObservations(). Any observations that contain a NaN will be ignored; that osensor/observation pair will not be used in the next calculation of the assembly goal cost function.
|
inline |
Change the weight associated with a particular osensor.
If this is just a quantitative change (e.g., weight was 0.3 now it is 0.4) then this does not require any reinitialization and will affect the goal calculation next time it is done. If the weight changes to or from zero (a qualitative change) then this will uninitialize the Assembler and all the internal data structures will be changed to remove or add this osensor from the list of active osensors. If you want to temporarily ignore an osensor without reinitializing, you can set its corresponding observation to NaN in which case it will simply be skipped when the goal value is calculated.
|
inline |
Return the current value of the orientation for this observation.
This is the orientation to which we will try to rotate the corresponding osensor if there is one. The result might be NaN if there is no current value for this observation; you can check using Rotation's isFinite() method.
|
inline |
Return the current values of all the observed orientations.
These are the orientations to which we will try to rotate the corresponding osensors, for those observations that have corresponding osensors defined. Some of the values may be NaN if there is currently no corresponding observation. Note that these are indexed by ObservationIx; use getObservationIxForOSensor() to map a OSensorIx to its corresponding ObservationIx.
Rotation SimTK::OrientationSensors::findCurrentOSensorOrientation | ( | OSensorIx | mx | ) | const |
Using the current value of the internal state, calculate the ground frame orientation of a particular osensor.
The difference between this orientation and the corresponding observation is the current error for this osensor.
|
inline |
Using the current value of the internal state, calculate the error between the given osensor's current orientation and its corresponding observed orientation (unweighted), as a nonnegative angle in radians between 0 and Pi.
If the osensor is not associated with an observation, or if the observed location is missing (indicated by a NaN value), then the error is reported as zero.

overridevirtual |
This is called whenever the Assembler is initialized in case this assembly condition wants to do some internal work before getting started.
None of the other virtual methods will be called until this one has been, except possibly the destructor. The set of free q's and the internal State are valid at this point and can be retrieved from the Assembler stored in the base class.

This is called whenever the containing Assembler is uninitialized in case this assembly condition has some cleanup to do.
Reimplemented from SimTK::AssemblyCondition.
|
overridevirtual |
Calculate the amount by which this assembly condition is violated by the q values in the given state, with one scalar error per assembly equation returned in err.
The functional return should be zero if successful; negative values are reserved with -1 meaning "not implemented"; return a positive value if your implementation is unable to evaluate the error at the current state. If this method is not implemented then you must implement calcGoal() and this assembly condition may only be used as a goal, not a requirement.
Reimplemented from SimTK::AssemblyCondition.
|
overridevirtual |
Override to supply an analytic Jacobian for the assembly errors returned by calcErrors().
The returned Jacobian must be nErr X nFreeQs; that is, if there is only one assembly error equation the returned matrix is a single row (that's the transpose of the gradient). The functional return should be zero if this succeeds; negative values are reserved with the default implementation returning -1 which indicates that the Jacobian must be calculated numerically using the calcErrors() method. Return a positive value if your implementation is unable to evaluate the Jacobian at the current state.
Reimplemented from SimTK::AssemblyCondition.
|
overridevirtual |
Override to supply an efficient method for determining how many errors will be returned by calcErrors().
Otherwise the default implementation determines this by making a call to calcErrors() and returning the size of the returned error vector. The functional return should be zero if this succeeds; negative values are reserved; return a positive value if your implementation of this method can't determine the number of errors with the given state (unlikely!).
Reimplemented from SimTK::AssemblyCondition.
Calculate the current contribution (>= 0) of this assembly condition to the goal value that is being minimized.
If this isn't overridden we'll generate it by combining the m errors returned by calcErrors() in a mean sum of squares: goal = err^2/m.
Reimplemented from SimTK::AssemblyCondition.
|
overridevirtual |
Override to supply an analytic gradient for this assembly condition's goal.
The returned gradient must be nFreeQ X 1; that is, it is a column vector giving the partial derivative of the goal with respect to each of the free q's in order. The functional return should be zero if this succeeds. The default implementation return -1 which indicates that the gradient must be calculated numerically using the calcGoal() method.
