pair<VectorArr, VectorArr> bezierCurveNormalLR(VectorArr controlPoints, double distance = 1, double t = 0.02)

Returns the left and right normal curves of the bezier curve defined by the control points.

Parameters

  • controlPoints - The list of control points to make the curve from
  • distance - The distance to offset the normal curves by
  • t - The number to increment t by. The default is 0.02

Returns

A pair of lists of points on the left and right normal curves

Comments

I have no idea if this function is actually useful or even if it works, but it’s here anyway. It should work, but I’ve never used it. I think it could be used to make a path area for the robot to follow and stay in, rather than just a path.

Example 

VectorArr controlPoints = {PVector(0, 0), PVector(0, 1), PVector(1, 1)};
pair<VectorArr, VectorArr> curves = bezierCurveNormalLR(controlPoints, 0.1, 0.02);
