Goal
The vehicle will drive in a basic circle with a radius of 1m. The center of the circle will be in the center of the map, but the circle will not be connected to the map.
...
Define four points of your circle on a coordinate system.
Define the speed vector of the vehicle for each point for the entire trajectory. When you define v_x and v_y remember that vges = sqrt(vx^2 +vy^2) (as it is a vector). You use this vector to define the direction for your vehicle, so where it has to steer next. Always assign at least a small value to both vectors to ensure the correct direction. Remember that your are defining a physical system, so avoid sharp edges.
Draw the vecotrs on each point of your trajectory:
Now implement your points and speed values using the predefined vetors trajectory_px and trajectory_py for your points of the trajectory and trajectory_vx and trajectory_vy for the speed at each point. The speed is given in m/s. Set the center of the circle to the center of the map at x =2,25m and y= 2m.
...
All data are sent to the vehicle using the writer-function from the beginning in the form of
{point_x_position;
point_y_position;
velocity_x_direction;
velocity_y_direction;
timestamp ;
}
where each value is a scalar.
