Paths and queues

Definition of fixed paths along which objects travel, snapping of located objects to paths, and the application of constraints to form queues

Summary

The purpose of Paths and queues is to allow you to introduce prior knowledge of object locations into SmartSpace, in particular when objects travel along fixed paths.

With Paths and queues in control, objects will be snapped to nearby paths as tags move around. Configuration intended to match the real-world, physical, immutable constraints of the objects being modeled, such as speed and separation, ensures that objects form queues along the paths. The object sequence information in your application can be used to report things like “number of vehicles in front”.
