Interface NavigationInterface

public interface NavigationInterface

The NavigationInterface should be implemented by any class that provides navigation data and interfaces with the navigation unit.

NOTE: The internal Jarol components are called interfaces, e.g., sensor interface, whereas the outside components are called units, e.g., navigation unit.
