compute_path_curvature()

MAYAFLUX_API std::vector< Kakshya::LineVertex > MayaFlux::Kinesis::compute_path_curvature	(	const std::vector< Kakshya::LineVertex > &	path_vertices,
		float	curvature_scale,
		size_t	stride = 1
	)

Compute curvature vectors along a path (2nd derivative approximation)

Parameters

path_vertices	Sequential vertices defining curve
curvature_scale	Magnitude scaling factor
stride	Sample every stride-th vertex

Returns

Line segments representing discrete curvature

Curvature at i approximated by: (v[i+1] - 2*v[i] + v[i-1])
