Boustrophedon Planner

Boustrophedon Planner is a coverage path planner that implements a modified cellular decomposition algorithm. The original can be found here.

Overview

The path planner is an actionlib server that takes in a geometry_msgs/PolygonStamped and a geometry_msgs/PoseStamped, and returns a StripingPlan message which contains a list of waypoints to stripe the passed in polygon.

Sample Boustrophedon Plan

Changelog

  • January 23, 2020:
    • The boustrophedon planner can now handle all types of simple polygons that it is given, both convex and concave.
    • Inner boundaries are supported, allowing the planner to create paths at a certain offset from the initial given boundary.
    • "Half - Y" turns are supported, allowing for some curvature at the start / end of paths to assist robots that are not completely holonomic.
    • Many new launch file parameters allow the user to specify more precisely the behavior that they want the plan to have
