Gyroscope

This sensor emulates a Gyroscope, providing the yaw, pitch and roll angles of the sensor object with respect to the Blender world reference axes.

Angles are given in radians.

Configuration parameters for gyroscope

No configurable parameter.

Data fields

This sensor exports these datafields at each simulation step:

  • yaw (float, initial value: 0.0)

    rotation around the Z axis of the sensor, in radian

  • pitch (float, initial value: 0.0)

    rotation around the Y axis of the sensor, in radian

  • roll (float, initial value: 0.0)

    rotation around the X axis of the sensor, in radian

Interface support:

Services for Gyroscope

  • get_local_data() (blocking)

    Returns the current data stored in the sensor.

    • Return value

      a dictionary of the current sensor’s data

Examples

The following example shows how to use this component in a Builder script:

from morse.builder import *

robot = ATRV()

# creates a new instance of the sensor
gyroscope = Gyroscope()

# place your component at the correct location
gyroscope.translate(<x>, <y>, <z>)
gyroscope.rotate(<rx>, <ry>, <rz>)

robot.append(%(var)s)

# define one or several communication interface, like 'socket'
gyroscope.add_interface(<interface>)

env = Environment('empty')
