Input parameters and intersection geometry define the influence of a switch arc on a trajectory. The
main cases of shapes intersection are considered below. Here as an example to consider two lines
intersection. If an angle between two lines is small, even a switch arc with a small radius can
significantly change initial trajectory while an arc with the same radius can be insignificant for lines
with intersection angle close to
180
o
.
In addition to geometric constraints, the Motion Library imposes limitations on the switch arc
length. Each switch arc should not exceed 50% of the segment length. If there are two switch arcs
adjacent to some polyline segment, then both arcs should not take more than 80% of its initial
length.
