Reconsider naming convention for "vehicle_representation" #61

Closed cfirth-nasa closed 2 months ago

cfirth-nasa commented 1 year ago

Was brought up that the name "vehicle_representation" maybe does not fully represent the work that the class it creates actually does. "Vehicle_representation" suggests health/housekeeping (to me), whereas the actual class carries something more like a state space (containing information about the platform/system AND the environment). Is there a more accurate name for this subsystem?

Here's a few ideas: CognitiveEntityModel AdaptiveEntity AutonomousUnit AutoBot (but then we'd need a rival class called Decepticon :smirk:)
