A plugin that allows models to transport (teleport) to a new location.
A transporter plugin uses multiple named <pads>, where each <pad> defines an outgoing region, an incoming pose, and a destination pad.
When a model enters a pad's outgoing region it is moved to the destination pad's incoming pose. This means the transporter plugin is only useful if at least two pads are defined.
The following is example usage in SDF:
<plugin filename="libTransporterPlugin.so" name="transporter"> <!-- Topic that facilitates manual activation of a pad. An activation message is only meaningful for pad's with manual activation. An activation message consists of a string message on this topic with a pad's name to activate. See examples/stand_alone/transporter.cc for an example for triggering a manual pad. --> <activation_topic>~/transporter</activation_topic> <!-- Pad 1, which is automatically updated. This means any model that enter the outgoing region will be moved. --> <pad name="pad1"> <destination>pad2</destination> <activation>auto</activation> <outgoing> <min>-.5 -.5 0</min> <max>.5 .5 1</max> </outgoing> <incoming> <pose>2 3.5 0 0 0 0</pose> </incoming> </pad> <!-- Pad 2 is manually updated. This means a model will be moved only if it is in the outgoing region and an activation message has been received. An activation message consists of a string message on the <activation_topic> topic with the pad's name. --> <pad name="pad2"> <destination>pad1</destination> <activation>manual</activation> <outgoing> <min>-.5 3.0 0</min> <max>.5 4.0 1</max> </outgoing> <incoming> <pose>2 0 0 0 0 0</pose> </incoming> </pad> </plugin>
