Maliput viewer

[basicNew]

Bare bones

• [x] Create an empty 3D widget that uses 100% of the window.
• [x] Add support for reading command line parameters. Read a path from the command line that should point to the maliput file.
• [x] Given a path, load the road geometry in memory (this will require using maliput as a library). Focus on multilane for a starter.
• [x] Write the code that takes a road network pointer and returns a set of named meshes / layers.
• [x] Populate the 3D scene with the meshes.

Key Result: demonstrate the viewer, loading from the command line, a Maliput multilane format.

Information labels (see maliput/maliput_viz#14)

• [ ] Set labels with the IDs for all the entities and no toggling can be done.
• [x] Provide the control box with different check boxes.
• [ ] Modify label duplication if necessary.
• [ ] Usability improvements.

Key Result: load a multilane road network and properly visualize text labels with relevant IDs.

RoadGeometry properties (see issue maliput/delphyne_gui#113)

• [ ] After a click in the 3D widget over a road, get the 3D world coordinate from it in a text field.
• [ ] After a click in the 3D widget over a road, properly visualize coordinates and road metadata (eg lane ID).

Key Result: load a maliput multilane road netowork and get relevant information (eg. world and lane coordinates) after clicking on the road network.

Load from widget and enable rendering options

• [ ] Add a UI button that opens a file dialog to choose the file to load. (Needs review)
• [ ] Add a set of checkboxes to show/hide different features.
• [ ] Add a button that allows to reloading current loaded file. (Needs review)

Key Result: load a maliput multilane from the widget and enable/disable rendering of features

Simulation Functionality

• [ ] Establish a connection with the backend to receive the road network from it.
• [ ] Enable loading/rendering of a road network given a specification passed from the simulator.

Key Result: view/introspect road networks passed from the simulator.

From Andy:

• Load a monolane YAML in memory, taking path from command line [Merged - maliput/delphyne_gui#39 and maliput/delphyne_gui#223].
• First working viewer prototype [Under review - maliput/delphyne_gui#49]

[basicNew]

Weekly update:

• First working viewer prototype merged [#49].
• Bare bones section done (demo video).
• Now working on toggling layers on and off [#32]

[basicNew]

Weekly update:

• [#32] Working on show/hide layers. Have a first prototype, still needs code refactoring and some improvements (video here).

Weekly update:

• Show/hide layers PR is out (video) [Under review - maliput/delphyne_gui#61]

@maddog-tri let's use this one as the wishlist meta-issue. @agalbachicar will update it with the new issues and current priorities.

META issue is updated.

FYI, I'm working on " Set labels with the IDs for all the entities and no toggling can be done."

Update

Information labels (see maliput/maliput_viz#14) --> Set labels with the IDs for all the entities and no toggling can be done.

Done with lanes and branch points.

Load from widget and enable rendering options --> Add a UI button that opens a file dialog to choose the file to load. (Needs review) and Add a button that allows to reloading current loaded file. (Needs review)

PR sent, under review.
