updateNodes (Aero.VirtualRealityAnimation)

Change virtual reality animation node position and orientation as function of time

Syntax

updateNodes(h,t)
h.updateNotes(t)

Description

updateNodes(h,t) and h.updateNotes(t) change node position and orientation of body h as a function of time t. t is a scalar in seconds.

Note   This function requires that you load the node and time series data first.

Examples

Update the node h with time in 5 seconds.

h = Aero.VirtualRealityAnimation;
h.FramesPerSecond = 10;
h.TimeScaling = 5;
h.VRWorldFilename = [matlabroot,'/toolbox/aero/astdemos/vrtkoff.wrl'];
copyfile(h.VRWorldFilename,[tempdir,'vrtkoff.wrl'],'f');
h.VRWorldFilename = [tempdir,'vrtkoff.wrl'];
h.initialize();
load takeoffData
h.Nodes{7}.TimeseriesSource = takeoffData;
h.Nodes{7}.TimeseriesSourceType = 'StructureWithTime';
h.Nodes{7}.CoordTransformFcn = @vranimCustomTransform;
h.updateNodes(5);
