5.1.1 Generic functions

Generic Function: add-knot (spline knot)

Given a knot as a sequence pair representing an x,y point, add it to this spline’s control knots.

Package

cl-catmull-rom-spline.

Source

spline.lisp.

Methods
Method: add-knot ((spline spline) (knot sequence))
Generic Function: next-point (spline)

For the current segment between knots, calculates the next point and
returns it as a two element vector.

If the spline contains fewer than 3 knots, an error signal is raised.

This method returns two extra multiple values for special conditions:
* When the next point has reached or would reach beyond the final knot,
#(0.0 0.0) is returned along with a second value set to T.
Otherwise this second value is nil.
* When the returned point is the final point of a segment, a third value will be T.

Package

cl-catmull-rom-spline.

Source

spline.lisp.

Methods
Method: next-point ((spline spline))
Generic Function: reset (spline)

Reinitializes the spline state so the next call to next-poin will return the beginning point of the spline.

Package

cl-catmull-rom-spline.

Source

spline.lisp.

Methods
Method: reset ((spline spline))
Generic Function: scale (spline factor)

Multiplies each knot’s x and y values by the scale factor.

Package

cl-catmull-rom-spline.

Source

spline.lisp.

Methods
Method: scale ((spline spline) (factor real))

5.1.2 Classes

Class: spline

Catmull-Rom splines are composed of a number of knots
(at least 3) with a piecewise path computed between
each knot, with the overall path from the first to
last knot appearing smooth. Each knot will be crossed
along the path.

Point: two-element vector representing an (x, y) coordiante.
Knots: control points determining the shape of the complete spline path. Spline segments: the path between knots. Can be thought of as functions of time path(t) : R -> point, from t=0 to t=1.
path(0) is the first knot in the segment, path(1) is the last knot.

By default this 0.1 dt means that for the first
segment, it will take 11 calls (t goes from =0 to =1) to complete, but every other segment will start at t=0.1 to avoid repeating the knot value at t=0 and thus take 10 calls to go through. Use either shorter point distances, or a lower dt to have smoother interpolation.

Function: coeff-x (spline coeff)
Package

Source

Function: coeff-y (spline coeff)
Package

cl-catmull-rom-spline.

Source

spline.lisp.

Function: compute-coefficients (spline)

A point on a segment can be found by applying the equation
p(t) = at^3 + bt^2 + ct + d
with coeffs a, b, c, d. The coeffs are computed below,
with e.g. a_x = 1/2(-x_{i-1} + 3x_i - 3_x{i+1} + x_{i+2})

Note the basis matrix for cardinal spline coeffs is:
[[-a 2-a a-2 a]
[2a a-3 3-2a -a]
[-a 0 a 0]
[0 1 0 0]]
where a is the spline ’tension’. As a approaches 1, the bend at each knot is less. Catmull-Rom splines typically use the value of 0.5, we use the same.

Generic Function: compute-endpoints (spline)
Package

cl-catmull-rom-spline.

Methods
Method: compute-endpoints ((spline spline))

Should be called after all knots have been added. Called automatically by next-point if user forgot.

Once the user-facing knots are added, we need to compute two ’true’ auxilliary endpoints for the whole path. Currently this is done by duplicating the the first and last knots, though this can cause kinking.
A future approach is to use reflection, which can still cause pinching but may be better.
Of course, they can be set manually if needed. (Consider subclassing rather than direct knot access.)
