Syntax

remove(sensorDataObj,Timestamp=timestamps)
remove(sensorDataObj,Timestamp=timestamps,TimeTol=timeTol)
remove(sensorDataObj,RowIndices=rowIndices)

Description

remove(sensorDataObj,Timestamp=timestamps) removes sensor data for the specified timestamps timestamps from the sensor data object sensorDataObj.

example

remove(sensorDataObj,Timestamp=timestamps,TimeTol=timeTol) removes sensor data for the specified timestamps timestamps, with a tolerance time, timeTol, from the sensor data object sensorDataObj.

remove(sensorDataObj,RowIndices=rowIndices) removes sensor data for the specified row indices rowIndices from the sensor data object sensorDataObj.

Note

This function requires the Scenario Builder for Automated Driving Toolbox™ support package. You can install the Scenario Builder for Automated Driving Toolbox support package from the Add-On Explorer. For more information about installing add-ons, see Get and Manage Add-Ons.

Input Arguments

collapse all

Sensor data, specified as a GPSData object, Trajectory object, CameraData object, or a LidarData object.

Timestamps for which to remove sensor data, specified as a nonnegative scalar, M-element numeric column vector, an M-element datetime array, or an M-element duration array. M is the number of timestamps. The datatype of the timestamps value and the datatype of the Timestamps property of the input sensor data object sensorDataObj must be the same. If you specify a positive scalar or an M-element numeric column vector, units must be in seconds. Each element in the timestamps argument specifies the time at which the GPS data was collected.

When you remove sensor data, the sensor data object sensorDataObj arranges the data in the increasing order of the timestamps.

Row indices of the sensor data to remove, specified as a positive integer or an M-element column vector of positive integers. M is the number of rows of the sensorDataObj input from which to remove data. Values must be in the range [1, NumSamples], where NumSamples is the number of samples in the input sensor data object sensorDataObj.

Data Types: single | double | uint8 | uint16 | uint32 | uint64

Tolerance time to read data, specified as a nonnegative scalar. Units are in seconds. The function removes data samples for each timestamps in the interval, timestamps-timeTol to timestamps+ timeTol. Increasing the tolerance time increases the number samples in the sensor data object sensorDataObj.

Data Types: single | double
