writeBinaryOccupancyGrid

(To be removed) Write values from grid to ROS message

writeBinaryOccupancyGrid will be removed in a future release. Use rosWriteBinaryOccupancyGrid (ROS Toolbox) instead. For more information, see ROS Message Structure Functions.

Description

writeBinaryOccupancyGrid(msg,map) writes occupancy values and other information to the ROS message, msg, from the binary occupancy grid, map.

Note

The msg input is an 'nav_msgs/OccupancyGrid' ROS message. For more info, see OccupancyGrid (ROS Toolbox).

Input Arguments

collapse all

Binary occupancy grid, specified as a binaryOccupancyMap object handle. map is converted to a 'nav_msgs/OccupancyGrid' message on the ROS network. map is an object with a grid of binary values, where 1 indicates an occupied location and 0 indications an unoccupied location.

'nav_msgs/OccupancyGrid' ROS message, specified as a OccupancyGrid object handle.

R2021a: ROS Message Structure Functions

You can now create messages as structures with fields matching the message object properties. Using structures typically improves performance of creating, updating, and using ROS messages, but message fields are no longer validated when set. Message types and corresponding field values from the structures are validated when sent across the network.

To support message structures as inputs, new functions that operate on specialized ROS messages have been provided. These new functions are based on the existing object functions of message objects, but support ROS and ROS 2 message structures as inputs instead of message objects.

The object functions will be removed in a future release.
