+ * Limits a stream of poses to a given maximum translational and rotational velocities.
+ *
+ * Normal operation:
+ *
+ * Pose3f output;
+ * PoseRateLimiter limiter(...);
+ *
+ * // Limiting is disabled. Output will be the same as last input.
+ * limiter.setTarget(...);
+ * output = limiter.calculatePose(...);
+ * limiter.setTarget(...);
+ * output = limiter.calculatePose(...);
+ *
+ * // Enable limiting. Output will no longer be necessarily the same as last input.
+ * limiter.enable();
+ * limiter.setTarget(...);
+ * output = limiter.calculatePose(...);
+ * limiter.setTarget(...);
+ * output = limiter.calculatePose(...);
+ *
+ * // When eventually the output has been able to catch up with the last input, the limited will be
+ * // automatically disabled again and the output will match the input again.
+ * limiter.setTarget(...);
+ * output = limiter.calculatePose(...);
+ *
+ * As shown above, the limiter is turned on manually via enable(), but turns off automatically as
+ * soon as the output is able to catch up to the input. The intention is that rate limiting will be
+ * turned on at specific times to smooth out any artificial discontinuities introduced to the pose
+ * stream, but the rest of the time will be a simple passthrough.
+
+ * setTarget(...) and calculatePose(...) don't have to be ordered in any particular way. However,
+ * setTarget or reset() must be called at least once prior to the first calculatePose().
+ *
+ * Calling reset() instead of setTarget() forces the output to the given pose and disables rate
+ * limiting.
+ *
+ * This implementation is thread-compatible, but not thread-safe.
