Detailed Description

Kanzi uses curve reparametrization to subdivide a spline or a line into a series of samples.

Use this class to split a spline into more points, or to create a linear range of points from 0 to curveLength. You can query the sample points by the phase (or time) or length parameters, using getPhaseParameter() or getLengthParameter(). These methods return a sample point defined at the phase coordinate or at the curve length coordinate.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

kanzi::CurveReparametrization::CurveReparametrization ( )
explicitprotected

Construct CurveReparametrization with member values set to 0.

Member Function Documentation

static CurveReparametrizationPtr kanzi::CurveReparametrization::createEmpty ( )
static

Creates an empty curve reparametrization.

Returns
CurveReparametrization unique pointer.
static CurveReparametrizationPtr kanzi::CurveReparametrization::createLinear ( float  curveLength)
static

Creates a linear curve reparametrization by curve length.

Use this to subdivide a linear path into multiple steps. This reparametrization only contains two samples, one at phase 0, and another at curve length.

Parameters
curveLengthLength of the curve.
Returns
CurveReparametrization unique pointer.
static CurveReparametrizationPtr kanzi::CurveReparametrization::createSpline ( const Spline spline,
unsigned int  minimumSamples,
unsigned int  maximumSubdivisions,
float  relativeErrorMagnitude 
)
static

Creates a curve length reparametrization for a spline by sampling.

Use this to subdivide a spline into more smooth representation. First splits the curve into secant lines by sampling at 'minimumSamples' points. After that subdivides the secants as long as the relative error estimate is over 'relativeErrorMagnitude' and 'maximumSubdivisions' depth is not reached.

Parameters
splineThe spline used for reparametrization.
minimumSamplesMinimum number of samples to sample at.
maximumSubdivisionsMaximum number of subdivisions calculated.
relativeErrorMagnitudeLower limit for relative error estimate.
Returns
CurveReparametrization unique pointer.
float kanzi::CurveReparametrization::getPhaseParameter ( float  lengthParameter)

Gets the phase that matches the given curve length in [0, length].

Use this to evaluate a curve reparametrization at given phase, or time.

Parameters
lengthParameterCurve length parameter.
Returns
The phase for the given curve length.
float kanzi::CurveReparametrization::getLengthParameter ( float  phaseParameter)

Gets the curve length that matches the given phase in [0, 1].

Use this to get the length of the curve at a given phase, or time.

Parameters
phaseParameterPhase parameter.
Returns
The curve length for the given phase.
float kanzi::CurveReparametrization::getCurveLength ( ) const

Gets the curve length of the curve. Use this to get the total length of the curve reparametrization.

unsigned int kanzi::CurveReparametrization::getSampleCount ( ) const

Gets number of sample points a reparametrization uses.

Use this to get how many discrete samples, or points, the curve reparametrization has. Can in some cases be used as an approximation for complexity of the curve.

float kanzi::CurveReparametrization::getLengthSampleByIndex ( unsigned int  index) const

Gets length parameter by index. Use this to get the length of a reparametrization sample at given index.
