Public Member Functions

 STRRTstar (const ompl::base::SpaceInformationPtr &si)
 Constructor.
 
void clear () override
 Clear all internal datastructures. Planner settings are not affected. Subsequent calls to solve() will ignore all previous work.
 
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).

 
base::PlannerStatus solve (const base::PlannerTerminationCondition &ptc) override
 Function that can solve the motion planning problem. 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. If this option is used, it is assumed the problem definition is not changed (unpredictable results otherwise). The only change in the problem definition that is accounted for is the addition of starting or goal states (but not changing previously added start/goal states). If clearQuery() is called, the planner may retain prior datastructures generated from a previous query on a new problem definition. The function terminates if the call to ptc returns true.
 
void setRange (double distance)
 Set the range the planner is supposed to use. More...
 
double getRange () const
 Get the range the planner is using.
 
double getOptimumApproxFactor () const
 The Optimum Approximation factor (0 - 1).
 
void setOptimumApproxFactor (double optimumApproxFactor)
 Set the Optimum Approximation factor. This allows the planner to converge more quickly, but only yields approximately optimal solutions.
 
std::string getRewiringState () const
 
void setRewiringToOff ()
 Do not rewire at all.
 
void setRewiringToRadius ()
 Rewire by radius.
 
void setRewiringToKNearest ()
 Rewire by k-nearest.
 
double getRewireFactor () const
 
void setRewireFactor (double v)
 
unsigned int getBatchSize () const
 The number of samples before the time bound is increased.
 
void setBatchSize (int v)
 
void setTimeBoundFactorIncrease (double f)
 The value by which the time bound factor is multiplied in each increase step.
 
void setInitialTimeBoundFactor (double f)
 The initial time bound factor.
 
void setSampleUniformForUnboundedTime (bool uniform)
 Whether the state space is sampled uniformly or centered at lower time values.
 
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 SpaceInformationPtrgetSpaceInformation () const
 Get the space information this planner is using.
 
const ProblemDefinitionPtrgetProblemDefinition () const
 Get the problem definition the planner is trying to solve.
 
ProblemDefinitionPtrgetProblemDefinition ()
 Get the problem definition the planner is trying to solve.
 
const PlannerInputStatesgetPlannerInputStates () const
 Get the planner input states.
 
virtual void setProblemDefinition (const ProblemDefinitionPtr &pdef)
 Set the problem definition for the planner. The problem needs to be set before calling solve(). Note: If this problem definition replaces a previous one, it may also be necessary to call clear() or clearQuery().
 
PlannerStatus solve (const PlannerTerminationConditionFn &ptc, double checkInterval)
 Same as above except the termination condition is only evaluated at a specified interval.
 
PlannerStatus solve (double solveTime)
 Same as above except the termination condition is solely a time limit: the number of seconds the algorithm is allowed to spend planning.
 
virtual void clearQuery ()
 Clears internal datastructures of any query-specific information from the previous query. Planner settings are not affected. The planner, if able, should retain all datastructures generated from previous queries that can be used to help solve the next query. Note that clear() should also clear all query-specific information along with all other datastructures in the planner. By default clearQuery() calls clear().
 
const std::string & getName () const
 Get the name of the planner.
 
void setName (const std::string &name)
 Set the name of the planner.
 
const PlannerSpecsgetSpecs () const
 Return the specifications (capabilities of this planner)
 
virtual void checkValidity ()
 Check to see if the planner is in a working state (setup has been called, a goal was set, the input states seem to be in order). In case of error, this function throws an exception.
 
bool isSetup () const
 Check if setup() was called for this planner.
 
ParamSetparams ()
 Get the parameters for this planner.
 
const ParamSetparams () const
 Get the parameters for this planner.

Detailed Description

Space-Time RRT* (STRRTstar)

Short description
ST-RRT* is a bidirectional, time-optimal planner for planning in space-time. It operates similar to a bidirectional version of RRT*, but allows planning in unbounded time spaces by gradual time-bound extensions and is highly optimized for planning in space-time by employing Conditional Sampling and Simplified Rewiring.

treeThe tree that the motions are added to

Definition at line 954 of file STRRTstar.cpp.

◆ setRange()

void ompl::geometric::STRRTstar::setRange ( double  distance)

Set the range the planner is supposed to use.

    This parameter greatly influences the runtime of the
    algorithm. It represents the maximum length of a
    motion to be added in the tree of motions.

Member Data Documentation

◆ tempState_

base::State* ompl::geometric::STRRTstar::tempState_ {nullptr}
protected

Goal Sampling is not handled by PlannerInputStates, but directly by the SpaceTimeRRT, because the time component of every goal sample is sampled dependent on the sampled space component.
