chrono::synchrono::ChMulPathFollowerACCDriver Class Reference

Description

A driver model that is very similar with ChPathFollowerACCDriver but it uses multiple path steering controller.

So the driver can switch to other paths when needed

Member Function Documentation

◆ SetThreshholdThrottle()

void chrono::synchrono::ChMulPathFollowerACCDriver::SetThreshholdThrottle ( double  val)
inline

Specify the throttle value below which braking is enabled.

If the vehicle is moving faster than the set speed, the controller attempts to reduce speed either by reducing the throttle input (if the current throttle input is above the threshold value) or by applying brakes (otherwise).
