Properties

The user can modify properties for the speed sensor such as a position, sensing target entity, and direction using Speed Sensor property page.

Figure 1  Speed Sensor property page

•     Mother Body: Defines the body on which the Speed Sensor is fixed.

•     Sensed Entity: Defines the sensed entity by the Speed Sensor of MTT3D.

•    If MTT3DAssembly is set, all sheets defined in the assembly become a sensing target.

•    If a sheet body is set, only the sheet becomes a sensing target.

•     Position: Defines the center point of Speed Sensor. The user can input this value as the Parametric Point.

•     Direction: Defines the direction of Speed Sensor. The user can input this value as the Parametric Point.

•     Range: Defines the detecting range of Speed Sensor. The user can input this value as the Parametric Value.

•     Color: Allows selecting the graphic color of Speed Sensor.

•     Use Depth Information: Defines the sensing region by using the Normal Direction and Depth. The shape of sensing region is the cylinder type defined by the end point (Position), the radius (Range), the length (Depth), the lengthwise direction (Normal Direction) as shown in Figure 2.
