Overview

Description

The world changes with time. This is not currently reflected in most global planners. We propose using time to improve the ability of path planners to deal with dynamic maps. We believe this will improve the quality of the maps and allow for greater flexibility in the planners.

Future Plans

The initial work has focused on integrating time sensitive maps with the ROS global planner. We want to expand this to incorporate new algorithms based on OMPL planners and to test it against existing systems.
