Trapos#

Introducción#

Los hilos permiten que un robot ejecute varias tareas simultáneamente dentro del mismo programa. Facilitan la multitarea, permitiendo que el robot realice acciones independientes al mismo tiempo.

Nota: Primero debe definir una función para usarla con un hilo.

Constructor – Crea e inicia nuevos hilos.

  • Thread – Starts a new thread that runs the specified function in parallel with the main program.

Acción: Controlar los hilos en ejecución.

  • stop – Stops a thread manually, useful for halting background behavior.

Constructor#

Thread#

Thread creates and starts a thread. When you create a thread, you can name it to manage it individually in your project.

Uso:

my_thread = Thread(my_function)

Parámetros

Descripción

my_thread

Opcional. Un nombre para el nuevo hilo.

my_function

El nombre de una función definida previamente.

Nota: Una función debe siempre estar definida antes de ser llamada.

def move_square():
    # Move in a square path
    while True:
        arm.move_inc(100, 0, 0)
        arm.move_inc(0, 100, 0)
        arm.move_inc(-100, 0, 0)
        arm.move_inc(0, 100, 0)

move_square_thread = Thread(move_square)
signal_tower.set_color(SignalTower.BLUE, signal_tower.BLINK)

# Run multiple threads simultaneously
def move_square():
    # Move in a square path
    while True:
        arm.move_inc(100, 0, 0)
        arm.move_inc(0, 100, 0)
        arm.move_inc(-100, 0, 0)
        arm.move_inc(0, 100, 0)

def lights():
    while True:
        # Turn on all LEDs
        signal_tower.set_colors(SignalTower.ON, SignalTower.ON, SignalTower.ON, SignalTower.ON, SignalTower.ON)
        wait(0.25, SECONDS)
        # Turn on just the red LED
        signal_tower.set_colors(SignalTower.ON, SignalTower.OFF, SignalTower.OFF, SignalTower.OFF, SignalTower.OFF)
        wait(0.25, SECONDS)

move_square_thread = Thread(move_square)
lights_thread = Thread(lights)

Acción#

stop#

stop stops a thread manually, which is useful when a task is no longer needed or when a program needs to reset or reassign threads. Once a thread is stopped, it cannot be restarted. To run it again, you must create a new thread using Thread.

Uso:

my_thread.stop()

Descripción

my_thread

A previously started thread object. This is the name assigned when the thread was created using Thread.
