The main function of the base local planner is to compute the velocity commands from the goal sent from the ROS nodes. This file mainly contains the configurations related to velocity, acceleration, and so on. The base local planner configuration file of this robot is in chefbot_bringup/param/base_local_planner_params.yaml. The definition of this file is as follows:
TrajectoryPlannerROS: # Robot Configuration Parameters, these are the velocity limit of the robot max_vel_x: 0.3 min_vel_x: 0.1 #Angular velocity limit max_vel_theta: 1.0 min_vel_theta: -1.0 min_in_place_vel_theta: 0.6 #These are the acceleration limits of the robot acc_lim_x: 0.5 acc_lim_theta: 1.0 # Goal Tolerance Parameters: The tolerance of robot when it reach the goal position yaw_goal_tolerance: 0.3 xy_goal_tolerance: 0.15 # Forward Simulation Parameters sim_time: 3.0 vx_samples: 6 vtheta_samples: 20 # Trajectory Scoring Parameters meter_scoring: true pdist_scale: 0.6 gdist_scale: 0.8 occdist_scale: 0.01 heading_lookahead: 0.325 dwa: true # Oscillation Prevention Parameters oscillation_reset_dist: 0.05 # Differential-drive robot configuration : If the robot is holonomic configuration, set to true other vice set to false. Chefbot is a non holonomic robot. holonomic_robot: false max_vel_y: 0.0 min_vel_y: 0.0 acc_lim_y: 0.0 vy_samples: 1
