This function requires the Scenario Builder for Automated Driving Toolbox™ support package. You can install the Scenario Builder for Automated Driving Toolbox support package from the Add-On Explorer. For more information about installing add-ons, see Get and Manage Add-Ons.

Examples

Filter Actor Tracks from Actor Track Data Object

Load recorded actor track data into the workspace.

load("trackedActorData.mat")

Initialize an ActorTrackData object using the information from the loaded actor track data.

timestamps = trackedActorData.Timestamps;
trackID = trackedActorData.TrackID;
position = trackedActorData.Position;
age = trackedActorData.Age;
trackData = scenariobuilder.ActorTrackData(timestamps,trackID,position,Age=age)

trackData =

Play the actor track data object.

play(trackData)

Filter actor tracks with ages greater than 20 and less than 100.

filteredTrackData = filter(trackData,Age=[20 100])

Input Arguments

trackData — Actor track data

ActorTrackData object

Actor track data, specified as an ActorTrackData object.

trackID — Track IDs for which to filter track data

N-by-1 string array

Track IDs for which to filter the track data, specified as an N-by-1 string array. N is the number of track IDs to filter.

Data Types: string

category — Category names for which to filter track data

N-by-1 string array

Category names for which to filter the track data, specified as an N-by-1 string array. N is the number of category names to filter.

Data Types: string

roi — Region of interest in which to filter track data

six-element row vector

Region of interest in which to filter track data, specified as a six-element row vector of the form [xmin xmax ymin ymax zmin zmax]. Units are in meters.

The function compares the minimum and maximum xyz-coordinate values to the coordinates in the Position property of the input actor track data object trackData.

six-element row vector

Velocity range for which to filter the track data, specified as a six-element row vector of the form [vxmin vxmax vymin vymax vzmin vzmax]. Units are in meters per second.

The function compares the minimum and maximum xyz-velocity values of actors to the length, width, and height values in the Velocity property of the input actor track data object trackData.

Data Types: double

age — Age range of actor tracks for which to filter track data

two-element row vector

Age range of the actor tracks for which to filter the track data, specified as a two-element row vector of positive integers of the form [agemin agemax].

The function compares the minimum and maximum age values of actor tracks to the age values in the Age property of the input actor track data object trackData.

Data Types: double

speed — Speed range for which to filter track data

two-element row vector

Speed range for which to filter the track data, specified as a two-element row vector of the form [speedmin speedmax]. Units are in meters per second.
