Detailed Description

The danger zone works by dividing the laser range finder's FOV into several user-specified angular blocks. Each such block is associated with a user-specified distance and a threshold. When the LRF reports a distance measurement in a block less than that block's danger zone, that reading is added to a list of danger zone readings for that block. When the number of danger zone readings for block exceeds its threshold, that block is considered "active" or "penetrated."

This inner class holds together angular blocks and their correspondinng danger zone specifications, thresholds, danger zone readings, etc.

Member Typedef Documentation

The danger zone readings for this block. This data structure is cleared and updated as part of the main thread's update cycle (i.e., it is not a static setting read from the config file).
