chrono::sensor::ChOptixEngine Class Reference

Description

Optix Engine that is responsible for managing all render-based sensors.

The is the interface between the dynamic simulation and the rendering/ray tracing. All ray tracing code is setup and managed via this class.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ChOptixEngine()

chrono::sensor::ChOptixEngine::ChOptixEngine	(	ChSystem *	sys,
		int	device_id,
		int	max_scene_reflections = 9,
		bool	verbose = false,
		bool	debug = false
	)

Class constructor.

Parameters

sys	Pointer to the ChSystem that defines the simulation
device_id	The id of the GPU which this engine is running on
max_scene_reflections	The maximum number of ray recursions that should be allowed by this engine
verbose	Sets verbose level for the engine
debug	Whether to run the engine in debug mode, which may have additional error checking and printing

Member Function Documentation

AssignSensor()

void chrono::sensor::ChOptixEngine::AssignSensor

(

std::shared_ptr< ChOptixSensor >

sensor

)

Add a sensor for this engine to manage and update.

Parameters

sensor

A shared pointer to an Optix-based sensor

GetDevice()

int chrono::sensor::ChOptixEngine::GetDevice ( )

inline

Way to query the device ID on which the engine is running.

CANNOT BE MODIFIED since the engine will have been already constructed

Returns

the GPU ID

GetNumSensor()

int chrono::sensor::ChOptixEngine::GetNumSensor ( )

inline

Query the number of sensors for which this engine is responsible.

Returns

The number of sensors managed by this engine

GetSensor()

std::vector<std::shared_ptr<ChOptixSensor> > chrono::sensor::ChOptixEngine::GetSensor ( )

inline

Gives the user the optix context.

This should be used with caution and should not be required for typical simulations.

Returns

The Optix context Gives the user access to the list of sensors being managed by this engine.

the vector of Chrono sensors

UpdateSensors()

void chrono::sensor::ChOptixEngine::UpdateSensors

(

std::shared_ptr< ChScene >

scene

)

Updates the sensors if they need to be updated based on simulation time and last update time.

Parameters

scene

The scene that should be rendered with.
