Hi, I wonder if someone can help me with a function I need for programming my robot. I want to update an 2D occupancy grid based on sonar data. The sonar “view angle” is cone shaped. So I need to calculate all cells of a 30° slice of a filled circle. Something like this: http://www.intechopen.com/source/html/37778/media/fig2.jpg
Using trigonometry is too expensive. I think something like Brenham’s circle algorithm would be a good candidate. But I need it filled (that would be doable for me I think) and I don’t need the full circle but only a part of it. I wonder if someone has a function like this lying around. If so I would be glad to not have to reinvent the wheel Thanks and cheers Robert -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
