Clock¶
This sensor returns the current time, measured by the robot (in s).
Configuration parameters for Clock¶
No configurable parameter.
Data fields¶
This sensor exports these datafields at each simulation step:
timestamp
(float, initial value:0.0
)- number of seconds in simulated time
Interface support:
socket
as straight JSON serialization (morse.middleware.socket_datastream.SocketPublisher
)yarp
as yarp::Bottle (morse.middleware.yarp_datastream.YarpPublisher
)text
as key = value format with timestamp and index value (morse.middleware.text_datastream.Publisher
)moos
as StringPublisher (morse.middleware.moos.abstract_moos.StringPublisher
)ros
as rosgraph_msgs/Clock (morse.middleware.ros.clock.ClockPublisher
)
Services for Clock¶
get_configurations()
(blocking)Returns the configurations of a component (parsed from the properties).
Return value
a dictionary of the current component’s configurations
get_local_data()
(blocking)Returns the current data stored in the sensor.
Return value
a dictionary of the current sensor’s data
get_properties()
(blocking)Returns the properties of a component.
Return value
a dictionary of the current component’s properties
set_property(prop_name, prop_val)
(blocking)Modify one property on a component
Parameters
prop_name
: the name of the property to modify (as shown the documentation)prop_val
: the new value of the property. Note that there is no checking about the type of the value so be careful
Return value
nothing
Examples¶
The following examples show how to use this component in a Builder script:
from morse.builder import *
# adds a default robot (the MORSE mascott!)
robot = Morsy()
# creates a new instance of the sensor
clock = Clock()
# place your component at the correct location
clock.translate(<x>, <y>, <z>)
clock.rotate(<rx>, <ry>, <rz>)
robot.append(clock)
# define one or several communication interface, like 'socket'
clock.add_interface(<interface>)
env = Environment('empty')
