subCurve

Below is a demonstration of the features of the subCurve function

Syntax
Description
Examples
Example: Linearly upsample an open ended curve with intermediate points
Example: Linearly upsample a closed curve with intermediate points

Syntax

[VN]=subCurve(Vt,np,closeLoopOpt);

Description

The subCurve function can be used to increase the point density of the input curve by adding evenly spaced points between each of the curve segments.

Examples

clear; close all; clc;

PLOT SETTINGS

fontSize=15;
markerSize1=45;
lineWidth1=2;
lineWidth2=5;
lineWidth3=2;
faceAlpha=0.5;

Example: Linearly upsample an open ended curve with intermediate points

Simulating a curve

Vt=[0 0 0; 10 0 0; 5 10 0; 10 0 10; 0 10 10; ];

Upsampling the curve

np=3; %Number of desired intermediate points to be added
[VN]=subCurve(Vt,np); %Using subcurve to upsample curve

Plotting results

hf1=cFigure;
title('A linearly upsampled curve','FontSize',fontSize);
xlabel('X','FontSize',fontSize);ylabel('Y','FontSize',fontSize); zlabel('Z','FontSize',fontSize);
hold on;

plotV(Vt,'k.-.','lineWidth',lineWidth1,'MarkerSize',markerSize1);
plotV(VN,'r.-','lineWidth',lineWidth1/2,'MarkerSize',markerSize1/2);

axis equal; view(3); axis tight;  grid on;  set(gca,'FontSize',fontSize);
drawnow;

Example: Linearly upsample a closed curve with intermediate points

Upsampling the curve

np=3; %Number of desired intermediate points to be added
closeLoopOpt=1; %Enable closed loop option
[VN]=subCurve(Vt,np,closeLoopOpt); %Using subcurve to upsample curve

Plotting results

hf1=cFigure;
title('A linearly upsampled curve with closed end condition','FontSize',fontSize);
xlabel('X','FontSize',fontSize);ylabel('Y','FontSize',fontSize); zlabel('Z','FontSize',fontSize);
hold on;

plotV(Vt,'k.-.','lineWidth',lineWidth1,'MarkerSize',markerSize1);
plotV(VN,'r.-','lineWidth',lineWidth1/2,'MarkerSize',markerSize1/2);

axis equal; view(3); axis tight;  grid on;  set(gca,'FontSize',fontSize);
drawnow;
