Usage

  • See configuration example in config to be loaded in the namespace of move_base
  • For easier usage deselect single click from rviz (Panels > Tool Properties > Publish Point > Single Click)
  • From the toolbar select the Publish Point tool
  • Start inserting waypoints
  • To generate the path insert the final waypoint close to the latest one with a distance not exceeding the threshold ε (default 0.1m)
  • The final goal pose is determined from the orientation of the line connecting the two final waypoints
