Detailed Description

The Frame class serves as the backbone of DART's kinematic tree structure.

Frame inherits Entity, so it exists within a reference Frame. This class keeps track of both its local (relative) and global (world) transforms, velocities, and accelerations. It also notifies every child Entity when a transform, velocity, or acceleration has changed locally or globally.

Entity class is inherited by using virtual inheritence to solve the so-called "diamond problem". Because of that, the Entity's constructor will be called directly by the most derived class's constructor.

◆ getPrimaryRelativeAcceleration()

virtual const Eigen::Vector6d& dart::dynamics::Frame::getPrimaryRelativeAcceleration ( ) const

pure virtual

The Featherstone ABI algorithm exploits a component of the spatial acceleration which we refer to as the partial acceleration, accessible by getPartialAcceleration().

A quiet entity is unknown to its parent Frame. It will not be tracked by its parent; it will not receive notifications from its parent, and it will not be rendered.

Reimplemented in dart::dynamics::BodyNode.

◆ processRemovedEntity()

void dart::dynamics::Frame::processRemovedEntity ( Entity * _oldChildEntity )
