read

Read UAV motion vector

Since R2020b

Syntax

[motion,LLA] = read(platform)

Description

[motion,LLA] = read(platform) reads the latest motion of the UAV platform in the scenario.

Input Arguments

platform — UAV platform

uavPlatform object

UAV platform in a scenario, specified as a uavPlatform object.

Output Arguments

motion — UAV platform motion at current instance in scenario

16-element vector

UAV platform motion at the current instance in a UAV scenario, returned as a 16-element vector with these elements in order:

• [x y z] — Positions in xyz-axes in meters

• [vx vy vz] — Velocities in xyz-directions in meters per second

• [ax ay az] — Accelerations in xyz-directions in meters per second

• [qw qx qy qz] — Quaternion vector for orientation

• [wx wy wz] — Angular velocities in radians per second

Data Types: double

LLA — Latitude, longitude, and altitude coordinates of UAV platform

three-element vector of the form [lat long alt]

Latitude, longitude, and altitude coordinates of the UAV platform at the current instance in a UAV scenario, returned as a three-element vector of the form [lat long alt].

Data Types: double
