Detailed Description

A plugin that traces the trajectory of a link in the rendering scene.

The plugin takes the following elements:

  • <frequency>: Frequency in Hertz in which to update the plot
  • <plot>: One plot element per link to be plotted in this model. It takes the following sub elements:
    • <link>: Link scoped name.
    • <pose>: Pose of point to plot, expressed in the link frame.
    • <material>: Material for the 3D line.

Example from plot3d.world:

<plugin name="3dplot" filename="libLinkPlot3DPlugin.so">

 <frequency>10</frequency>


 <plot>
   <link>double_pendulum_with_base::upper_link</link>


   <pose>0 0 1 0 0 0</pose>

   <material>Gazebo/Red</material>
 </plot>


 <plot>
   <link>double_pendulum_with_base::lower_link</link>


   <pose>0 0 1 0 0 0</pose>

   <material>Gazebo/Blue</material>
 </plot>

</plugin>

Load function.

Called when a Plugin is first created, and after the World has been loaded. This function should not be blocking.

Parameters
[in]_modelPointer to the Model
[in]_sdfPointer to the SDF element of the plugin.

Implements ModelPlugin.

virtual void Reset ( )
inlinevirtualinherited

Override this method for custom plugin reset behavior.

Reimplemented in RandomVelocityPlugin, ElevatorPlugin, FollowerPlugin, LinearBatteryPlugin, ActorPlugin, InitialVelocityPlugin, and SphereAtlasDemoPlugin.
