What it does
- Bundles battery parameters and physical parameters of a robot into reusable system classes.
- Models the state-of-charge change caused by a power-consuming onboard device over a duration.
- Estimates battery drain from the energy needed to accelerate or decelerate a robot along a trajectory.
- Provides simple out-of-the-box implementations of the device and motion power sinks.
- Includes an abstract base class so other power models can be plugged in.
