Linear Movement Sound Controller

Plays sound effects synchronized with linear actuator or hydraulic cylinder movement. Maps actuator position/speed to sound playback for realistic mechanical audio feedback.

Public API

FunctionDescription
module.resetSounds(jbeamData)Resets sound state.

Hooks

HookDescription
init(jbeamData)Connects to a physical JBeam beam to track movement and initializes velocity smoothers.
initSounds(jbeamData)Sets up the multi-layered sound engine, defining volume/pitch curves relative to movement velocity.
updateGFX(dt)Main loop. Calculates actuator velocity from the sensor beam, modulates the continuous movement loop, triggers discrete sounds for distance increments (segments), and plays impact sounds at physical limits.
module.reset(jbeamData)Resets the controller to its initial state.

AVAS (Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System)

Controls the Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System required on electric/hybrid vehicles at low speeds. Generates artificial engine sounds to alert pedestrians when the vehicle is moving quietly below a threshold speed.

Reverse Warning Sound Controller

Controls the audible reverse warning beeper that activates when the vehicle is in reverse gear. Manages beep timing, volume, and activation conditions.
