DrakeVisualizer< T > Class Template Reference

Detailed Description

template<typename T>
class drake::geometry::DrakeVisualizer< T >

A system that publishes LCM messages representing the current state of a SceneGraph instance (whose QueryObject-valued output port is connected to this system's input port).

The messages are compatible with Meldis.

DrakeVisualizer

The DrakeVisualizer system broadcasts three kinds of LCM messages:

• a message that defines the non-deformable geometries in the world on the lcm channel named "DRAKE_VIEWER_LOAD_ROBOT"
• a message that updates the poses of those non-deformable geometries on the lcm channel named "DRAKE_VIEWER_DRAW",
• a message that sets the world space vertex positions of the deformable geometries on the lcm channel named "DRAKE_VIEWER_DEFORMABLE"

If requested in DrakeVisualizerParams, the above channel names are modified according to the role specified. This allows simultaneous availability of geometry from multiple roles, by using multiple DrakeVisualizer instances.

• kIllustration: channel names gain a "_ILLUSTRATION" suffix.
• kProximity: channel names gain a "_PROXIMITY" suffix.
• kPerception: channel names gain a "_PERCEPTION" suffix.

The system uses the versioning mechanism provided by SceneGraph to detect changes to the geometry so that a change in SceneGraph's data will propagate to the message receiver.

Visualization by Role

By default, DrakeVisualizer visualizes geometries with the illustration role (see Geometry Queries and Roles for more details). It can be configured to visualize geometries with other roles (see DrakeVisualizerParams). Only one role can be specified.

The appearance of the geometry in the visualizer is typically defined by the geometry's properties for the visualized role.

• For the visualized role, if a geometry has the ("phong", "diffuse") property described in the table below, that value is used.
• Otherwise, if the geometry also has the illustration properties, those properties are likewise tested for the ("phong", "diffuse") property. This rule only has significance is the visualized role is not the illustration role.
• Otherwise, the configured default color will be applied (see DrakeVisualizerParams).

Group name	Required	Property Name	Property Type	Property Description
phong	no	diffuse	Rgba	The rgba value of the object surface.

Appearance of OBJ files for non-deformable geometries

Meshes represented by OBJ are special. The OBJ file can reference a material file (.mtl). If the mtl file is found by the receiving application, values in the .mtl will take precedence over the ("phong", "diffuse") geometry property.

It's worth emphasizing that these rules permits control over the appearance of collision geometry on a per-geometry basis by assigning an explicit Rgba value to the ("phong", "diffuse") property in the geometry's ProximityProperties.

Note

If collision geometries are added to SceneGraph by parsing URDF/SDF files, they will not have diffuse values. Even if elements were added to the specification files, they would not be parsed. They must be added to the geometries after parsing.

Effective visualization

The best visualization is when draw messages have been preceded by a compatible load message (i.e., a "coherent" message sequence). While LCM doesn't guarantee that messages will be received/processed in the same order as they are broadcast, your results will be best if DrakeVisualizer is allowed to broadcast coherent messages. Practices that interfere with that will likely produce undesirable results. E.g.,

• Evaluating a single instance of DrakeVisualizer across several threads, such that the data in the per-thread systems::Context varies.
• Evaluating multiple instances of DrakeVisualizer in a single thread that share the same lcm::DrakeLcmInterface.

Mesh support

DrakeVisualizer is mesh file format agnostic. A Mesh or Convex shape that references arbitrary mesh files will simply be packaged in the broadcast LCM message. It defers to the message receiver on whether that particular file format is supported.

Scalar support and conversion

DrakeVisualizer is templated on T and can be used in a double- or AutoDiffXd-valued Diagram. However, the diagram can only be converted from one scalar type to another if the DrakeVisualizer owns its lcm::DrakeLcmInterface instance. Attempts to scalar convert the system otherwise will throw an exception.

Utility functions for instantiating and connecting a visualizer
These methods provide a convenient mechanism for adding a DrakeVisualizer instance to an existing diagram, handling the necessary connections. The DrakeVisualizer instance must be connected to a QueryObject-valued output port. The difference between the two methods is how that output port is identified. Otherwise, the two methods have the same parameters and results. Both methods can be invoked with optional parameters: lcm: The DrakeVisualizer will use the lcm object provided, otherwise, if omitted, the DrakeVisualizer instance will create its own self-configured lcm::DrakeLcmInterface object. params: The DrakeVisualizer will be configured according to the provided parameters. If omitted, it uses default parameters.

DrakeVisualizer() [3/4]

DrakeVisualizer	(	lcm::DrakeLcmInterface *	lcm = nullptr,
		DrakeVisualizerParams	params = {}
	)

Creates an instance of DrakeVisualizer.

Parameters

lcm	An optional LCM interface. If none is provided, this system will allocate its own instance. If one is provided it must remain valid for the lifetime of this object.
params	The set of parameters to control this system's behavior.

Exceptions

std::exception	if params.publish_period <= 0.
std::exception	if params.role == Role::kUnassigned.

DrakeVisualizer() [4/4]

DrakeVisualizer ( const DrakeVisualizer< U > &  other )

explicit

Scalar-converting copy constructor.

See System Scalar Conversion. It should only be used to convert from double to other scalar types.

Exceptions

std::exception

if other does not own its lcm::DrakeLcmInterface.

AddToBuilder() [1/2]

static const DrakeVisualizer<T>& AddToBuilder ( systems::DiagramBuilder< T > *  builder, const SceneGraph< T > &  scene_graph, lcm::DrakeLcmInterface *  lcm = nullptr, DrakeVisualizerParams  params = {}  )

static

Connects the newly added DrakeVisualizer to the given SceneGraph's QueryObject-valued output port.

The DrakeVisualizer's name (see systems::SystemBase::set_name) will be set to a sensible default value, unless the default name was already in use by another system.

AddToBuilder() [2/2]

static const DrakeVisualizer<T>& AddToBuilder ( systems::DiagramBuilder< T > *  builder, const systems::OutputPort< T > &  query_object_port, lcm::DrakeLcmInterface *  lcm = nullptr, DrakeVisualizerParams  params = {}  )

static

Connects the newly added DrakeVisualizer to the given QueryObject-valued output port.

The DrakeVisualizer's name (see systems::SystemBase::set_name) will be set to a sensible default value, unless the default name was already in use by another system.

DispatchLoadMessage()

static void DispatchLoadMessage ( const SceneGraph< T > &  scene_graph, lcm::DrakeLcmInterface *  lcm, DrakeVisualizerParams  params = {}  )

static

(Advanced) Dispatches a load message built on the model geometry for the given SceneGraph instance.

This should be used sparingly. When we have a starightforward method for binding lcmtypes in python, this will be replaced with an API that will simply generate the lcm messages that the caller can then do whatever they like with.

Precondition

lcm != nullptr.

query_object_input_port()

const systems::InputPort<T>& query_object_input_port

(

)

const

Returns the QueryObject-valued input port.

It should be connected to SceneGraph's QueryObject-valued output port. Failure to do so will cause a runtime error when attempting to broadcast messages.
