Hello Sebastian,

 

thank you for your quick reply. Let me re-explain my question.

 

The main point is the navigation system. I am looking for something like the
following:

 

-          There is a 2D map (we don’t care now about how the map has been
made).

-          The system gets the map as an input with a starting point and a
destination.

-          The system has to calculate the shortest route (maybe with A*
algorithm or similar) from the starting point to the destination, and
avoiding obstacles (that are defined in the map). Let’s think in static
obstacles only.

-          The map and the route have to be displayed in the OSG scene (in
the HUD, for example, but that’s not a problem for me).

 

So, I need to know if there is a way to define the map with obstacles (with
coordinates of whatever), load it into any library, calculate the route and
transform the coordinates of the map and the route into something that can
be displayed into OSG.

 

Thank you.

 

Cheers

Hello Héctor,

It is not quite clear for me, which part you are trying to achieve.

If you are referring to the creation and the display of a HUD, take a look
at the osgHUD example. 
For creation of a map, you could display parts of your scene from a bird's
eye perspective inside the HUD/Slave-camera (orthographic camera)

If you really need something like a 2D map, you'll have to create the
map-data somehow. I could think of projecting the scene on a plane, or let
the modeler/artist create an outline-representation of the 3d-world.

cheers

Hello,

 

I am wondering if there is any OSG-friendly library to create a GPS system
(like those GPS HUDs in many games, e.g. GTA). What I am looking for is a
library (or combination of libraries) that allows the creation of the map,
the calculation of the route from origin to destination and the display of
the map in OSG.

I don’t know if there is any previous attempt to create this or if there are
good libraries about it, but it would be nice if somebody could give me a
hint on where to start looking at.

 

Thank you in advance.

 

Cheers!
