Naming Discussion: OptimTraj, or something better? #13

Closed MatthewPeterKelly closed 7 years ago

MatthewPeterKelly commented 8 years ago

It seems that the name TrajOpt is already taken by a software package from Pieter Abeel's group at Berkeley.

This library should be renamed. So far the best that I've come up with is OptimTraj, but I'm open to suggestions.

I have a few ideas (from most to least preferred). Don't know if any of these are taken:

OTSo - Optimal Trajectory Software (also the name of a [mythical bear])(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otso])
OpTool - Optimization Toolbox
MaTrOS - Matlab Trajectory Optimization Software (pronounced "Mattress")

Hi Delyle,

Thanks for the input! I actually updated the name two days ago from TrajOpt to OptimTraj, and forgot to close out this thread.

That being said, I really appreciate the feedback, and I do like your first suggestion: OTSo. I'll leave the thread open for a bit, to see if anyone else wants to weigh in. There are two other software programs called OTSo that I could find, but neither are related to trajectory optimization.

Matt
