PathTurnAngleMaximum

Advanced

Module: FoundationPro

Finds the maximum of the profile of turn angles of a path.

Name Type Description
Input value
 inPath Path Input path
Input value
 inAllowedTurnDirection TurnAngleDirection Allows to detect only left-turns, only right-turns or both
Input value
 inResultPrecision TurnAnglePrecision Switches between pixel-precise or subpixel-precise detection of the found maximum
Output value
 outMaximumTurnAngleIndex Real Index of found maximum
Output value
 outMaximumTurnAnglePoint Point2D Found point of a path with maximum turn angle
Output value
 outMaximumTurnAngleAngle Real Maximal turn angle of the input path

Description

The operation computes the profile of turn angles of a path and finds the maximum of the profile. The inAllowedTurnDirection parameter restricts kind of turns taken into consideration (left-turns only, right-turns only or both), while inResultPrecision determines the precision of the resulting maximum point.

Examples

PathTurnAngleMaximum run on the sample path with inAllowedTurnDirection = Right
