Different local planner for dynamic obstacle avoidance #16

Open joehopkinson opened 3 years ago

joehopkinson commented 3 years ago

Is it possible to use this package in conjunction with a local planner other than tracking_pid in order to allow dynamic obstacle avoidance? How would I go about doing this?

Thanks.

Yes, that should be possible. Simply select a different local planner of your choosing.

This plugin is merely a global_planner. So it should work with all local planners. Although not all local planners might be happy with the in-place turns in the paths. There is room for improvement there.
