7 years ago The robosub school of thought for path planning is "straight lines are all you really need". You should be able to plan straight line moves easily enough or build a reactive planner that just moves the quadcopter towards a vision target until the target is directly below the vehicle.
We've been talking about this from day 1 of the project, now we need someone to make sense of it all into an algorithm.
We need someone to write out our strategy for finding the best route to obtain the most amount of points. We've had discussions about it and now it needs to be actually done
Collaboration is also highly encouraged with others (especially the ones also writing out logical pathfinding)
This task takes the information passed from Object Avoidance( #14 ), Grid Positioning ( #17 ), and the ultrasonic Sensors ( #7 ) while monitoring this data, attempts to get from Point(A) to Point(B) while using movement commands that have been created from the tasks involving communication with the flight controller ( #10 & #6 ).
This task will eventually use ROS for the method of getting input data, but during early testing the information can be psuedo while all the tasks are being worked
