Description
Path-following steering PID controller.
The path to be followed is specified as a ChBezierCurve object and the target point is defined to be the point on that path that is closest to the current location of the sentinel point.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation
◆ ChPathSteeringController() [1/2]
| chrono::vehicle::ChPathSteeringController::ChPathSteeringController | ( | std::shared_ptr< ChBezierCurve > | path | ) |
Construct a steering controller to track the specified path.
This version uses default controller parameters (zero gains). The user is responsible for calling SetGains and SetLookAheadDistance.
◆ ChPathSteeringController() [2/2]
| chrono::vehicle::ChPathSteeringController::ChPathSteeringController | ( | const std::string & | filename, |
| std::shared_ptr< ChBezierCurve > | path | ||
| ) |
Construct a steering controller to track the specified path.
This version reads controller gains and lookahead distance from the specified JSON file.
Member Function Documentation
◆ Advance()
|
overridevirtual |
Advance the state of the PID controller.
This function performs the required integration for the integral component of the PID controller and returns the calculated steering value.
Implements chrono::vehicle::ChSteeringController.
◆ CalcTargetLocation()
|
overridevirtual |
Calculate the current target point location.
The target point is the point on the associated path that is closest to the current location of the sentinel point.
Implements chrono::vehicle::ChSteeringController.
◆ Reset()
|
overridevirtual |
Reset the PID controller.
This function resets the underlying path tracker using the current location of the sentinel point.
Reimplemented from chrono::vehicle::ChSteeringController.
