Workplaces

Scripts

These scripts implement the functionality related to Workplaces:

• Workplace: defines serialisable classes for the workplace data model and its integral parts, such as devices, places, warnings, etc.
• WorkplaceViewUpdater: script for the Workplace model's view updating functionality the sense of the MVC pattern. This functionality includes updating the objects in the AR scene when the underlying Workplace data model changes. This is done by reacting to the WorkplaceLoaded event. The WorkplaceViewUpdater script defines a ScriptableObject, which can be instantiated as an asset by right-clicking in the Project section of the Unity Editor and selecting Create -> WorkplaceModel -> WorkplaceViewUpdater. When instantiated, the WorkplaceViewUpdater asset is available independent of the scene.
• WorkplaceController: This script derives from MonoBehaviour and is a component of the WorkplaceController GameObject in the Start scene. It is mainly responsible for creating and updating the Workplace data model in the sense of the MVC pattern.
• WorkplaceManager: provides diverse methods for managing Workplaces, e.g., for calibration, to other scripts. Holds an instance of the Workplace data model as well as containers for positions of Workplace-related GameObjects in the scene.
