 Constructor.
 
void setProblemDefinition (const base::ProblemDefinitionPtr &pdef) override
 
void setConnectionStrategy (const ConnectionStrategy &connectionStrategy)
 Set the connection strategy function that specifies the milestones that connection attempts will be make to for a given milestone. More...
 
void setDefaultConnectionStrategy ()
 
void setMaxNearestNeighbors (unsigned int k)
 Convenience function that sets the connection strategy to the default one with k nearest neighbors.
 
unsigned int getMaxNearestNeighbors () const
 return the maximum number of nearest neighbors to connect a sample to More...
 
void setConnectionFilter (const ConnectionFilter &connectionFilter)
 Set the function that can reject a milestone connection. More...
 
void getPlannerData (base::PlannerData &data) const override
 Get information about the current run of the motion planner. Repeated calls to this function will update data (only additions are made). This is useful to see what changed in the exploration datastructure, between calls to solve(), for example (without calling clear() in between).

 
void constructRoadmap (const base::PlannerTerminationCondition &ptc)
 While the termination condition allows, this function will construct the roadmap (using growRoadmap() and expandRoadmap(), maintaining a 2:1 ratio for growing/expansion of roadmap)
 
void growRoadmap (double growTime)
 If the user desires, the roadmap can be improved for the given time (seconds). The solve() method will also improve the roadmap, as needed.
 
void growRoadmap (const base::PlannerTerminationCondition &ptc)
 If the user desires, the roadmap can be improved until a given condition is true. The solve() method will also improve the roadmap, as needed.
 
void expandRoadmap (double expandTime)
 Attempt to connect disjoint components in the roadmap using random bouncing motions (the PRM expansion step) for the given time (seconds).
 
void expandRoadmap (const base::PlannerTerminationCondition &ptc)
 Attempt to connect disjoint components in the roadmap using random bouncing motions (the PRM expansion step) until the given condition evaluates true.
 
base::PlannerStatus solve (const base::PlannerTerminationCondition &ptc) override
 Function that can solve the motion planning problem. Grows a roadmap using constructRoadmap(). This function can be called multiple times on the same problem, without calling clear() in between. This allows the planner to continue work for more time on an unsolved problem, for example. Start and goal states from the currently specified ProblemDefinition are cached. This means that between calls to solve(), input states are only added, not removed. When using PRM as a multi-query planner, the input states should be however cleared, without clearing the roadmap itself. This can be done using the clearQuery() function.
 
void clearQuery () override
 Clear the query previously loaded from the ProblemDefinition. Subsequent calls to solve() will reuse the previously computed roadmap, but will clear the set of input states constructed by the previous call to solve(). This enables multi-query functionality for PRM.
 
void clear () override
 Clear all internal datastructures. Planner settings are not affected. Subsequent calls to solve() will ignore all previous work.
 
template<template< typename T > class NN>
void setNearestNeighbors ()
 Set a different nearest neighbors datastructure.
 
void setup () override
 Perform extra configuration steps, if needed. This call will also issue a call to ompl::base::SpaceInformation::setup() if needed. This must be called before solving.
 
const GraphgetRoadmap () const
 
unsigned long int milestoneCount () const
 Return the number of milestones currently in the graph.
 
unsigned long int edgeCount () const
 Return the number of edges currently in the graph.

Detailed Description

PRM* planner.

Run PRM with the "star strategy". Instead of setting the value "k" for how many neighbors to connect, automatically compute it based on the coverage of the space, guaranteeing optimality of solutions.
