Constructor & Destructor Documentation
| cGeneric3dofPointer::cGeneric3dofPointer | ( | cWorld * | a_world | ) |
Constructor of cGeneric3dofPointer.
Constructor of cGeneric3dofPointer.
- Parameters:
-
a_world World in which the tool will operate.
Member Function Documentation
| void cGeneric3dofPointer::applyForces | ( | ) | [virtual] |
Apply latest computed forces to device.
Apply the latest computed force to the device.
Reimplemented from cGenericTool.
| void cGeneric3dofPointer::computeInteractionForces | ( | ) | [virtual] |
Compute interaction forces with environment.
Compute the interaction forces between the tool and the virtual object inside the virtual world.
Reimplemented from cGenericTool.
| int cGeneric3dofPointer::initialize | ( | const bool | a_resetEncoders = false |
) | [virtual] |
Initialize the device connected to the tool (0 indicates success).
Initialize device
- Parameters:
-
a_resetEncoders If true, this resets the device's 0 position to the current position (if this device supports re-zero'ing). That means that if your device supports re-zero'ing (e.g. Phantom premiums), you should be careful about calling this function in the middle of your program with a_resetEncoders set to 'true'. Or if you do call it with a_resetEncoders set to true, you should make sure your user knows to hold the Phantom in place.
- Returns:
- 0 indicates success, non-zero indicates an error
Reimplemented from cGenericTool.
| bool cGeneric3dofPointer::isInContact | ( | cGenericObject * | a_object | ) | [virtual] |
Check if the tool is touching a particular object.
Check if the tool is currently interacting with the given object.
- Returns:
- Return true if the tool is interacting with the object
Reimplemented from cGenericTool.
| void cGeneric3dofPointer::render | ( | const int | a_renderMode = 0 |
) | [virtual] |
Render the object in OpenGL.
Render the current tool in OpenGL.
- Parameters:
-
a_renderMode rendering mode; see cGenericObject.cpp.
Reimplemented from cGenericTool.
| int cGeneric3dofPointer::setForcesOFF | ( | ) | [virtual] |
Toggle forces OFF.
Turns forces OFF.
- Returns:
- 0 indicates success, non-zero indicates an error
Reimplemented from cGenericTool.
| int cGeneric3dofPointer::setForcesON | ( | ) | [virtual] |
Toggle forces ON.
Turns forces ON.
- Returns:

Reimplemented from cGenericTool.
| void cGeneric3dofPointer::setRadius | ( | const double & | a_radius | ) | [virtual] |
Set radius of pointer.
Set the radius of the proxy. The value passed as parameter corresponds to the size of the sphere which is rendered graphically. The physical size of the proxy, one which collides with the triangles is set to CHAI_SCALE_PROXY_RADIUS * a_radius.
- Parameters:
-
a_radius radius of pointer.
| void cGeneric3dofPointer::setWorkspaceRadius | ( | const double & | a_workspaceRadius | ) | [virtual] |
Set virtual workspace dimensions in which tool will be working.

a_workspaceRadius Radius of the workspace.
| void cGeneric3dofPointer::setWorkspaceScaleFactor | ( | const double & | a_workspaceScaleFactor | ) |
Set the scale factor between the workspace of the tool and one of the haptic device.
Define a scale factor between the physical workspace of the haptic device and the workspace span by the virtual tool.
- Parameters:
-
a_workspaceScaleFactor Workspace scale factor.
| int cGeneric3dofPointer::start | ( | ) | [virtual] |
Start communication with the device connected to the tool (0 indicates success).
Starts communication with the haptic device.
- Returns:
- 0 indicates success, non-zero indicates an error
Reimplemented from cGenericTool.
| int cGeneric3dofPointer::stop | ( | ) | [virtual] |
Stop communication with the device connected to the tool (0 indicates success).
Stop system. Apply zero force to device
- Returns:
- 0 indicates success, non-zero indicates an error
Reimplemented from cGenericTool.
| void cGeneric3dofPointer::updatePose | ( | ) | [virtual] |
Update position and orientation of the device.
Update position of pointer and orientation of wrist.
Reimplemented from cGenericTool.
Member Data Documentation
The last force computed for application to this tool, in the world coordinate system. [N]
If you want to manually send forces to a device, you can modify this value before calling 'applyForces'.
The last force computed for application to this tool, in the device coordinate. system. [N]
bool cGeneric3dofPointer::m_waitForSmallForce [protected] |
Normally this class waits for a very small force before initializing forces to avoid initial "jerks" (a safety feature); you can bypass that requirement with this variable.
