scenario_BasicOrbit_LivePlot¶
Overview¶
This script duplicates the bskSim basic orbit simulation in the scenario
scenario_BasicOrbit.
The difference is that instead of plotting the results after the simulation has stopped in this script a separate
thread is created to update the plots live during the simulation run itself. For more information on doing live
plotting see help file Live Plotting.
The script is found in the folder src/examples/BskSim/scenarios and executed by using:
python3 scenario_BasicOrbit_LivePlot.py
To enable live plotting with a bskSim Basilisk simulation additional
python packages Pipe, Process, Lock must be imported.
Next, the bskSim plotting routines must be called with a unique ID number. This is done in this example
with:
plotID = min([num for num in range(1,10) if not plt.fignum_exists(num)])
BSK_plt.plot_orbit(r_BN_N, plotID)
plotID = min([num for num in range(1,10) if not plt.fignum_exists(num)])
BSK_plt.plot_orientation(timeLineSet, r_BN_N, v_BN_N, sigma_BN, plotID)
The next step is to setup the live_outputs() method which details what to plot in a live manner.
The setup_live_outputs() method returns the required dataRequests structure as
discussed in the Live Plotting documentation page.
