Public Member Functions

 BiRLRT (const base::SpaceInformationPtr &si)
 
virtual void getPlannerData (base::PlannerData &data) const
 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).

 
virtual base::PlannerStatus solve (const base::PlannerTerminationCondition &ptc)
 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.
 
virtual void clear ()
 Clear all internal datastructures. Planner settings are not affected. Subsequent calls to solve() will ignore all previous work.
 
void setRange (double distance)
 Set the maximum distance between states in the tree.
 
double getRange () const
 Get the maximum distance between states in the tree.
 
void setMaxDistanceNear (double dNear)
 Set the maximum distance (per dimension) when sampling near an existing state.
 
double getMaxDistanceNear () const
 Get the maximum distance (per dimension) when sampling near an existing state.
 
bool getKeepLast () const
 If true, the planner will not have the range limitation. Instead, if a collision is detected, the last valid state is retained.
 
void setKeepLast (bool keepLast)
 Set whether the planner will use the range or keep last heuristic. If keepLast = false, motions are limited in distance to range_, otherwise the last valid state is retained when a collision is detected.
 
virtual void setup ()
 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.
 
const PlannerProgressPropertiesgetPlannerProgressProperties () const
 Retrieve a planner's planner progress property map.
 
virtual void printProperties (std::ostream &out) const
 Print properties of the motion planner.
 
virtual void printSettings (std::ostream &out) const
 Print information about the motion planner's settings.

Detailed Description

Bi-directional Range-Limited Random Tree (Ryan Luna's Random Tree)

BiRLRT is a basic bidirectional tree-based planner without any sophistic heuristics to guide the exploration. It should be used as a baseline for comparison against other bidirectional tree-based planners. In high-dimensional search spaces it can sometimes perform surprisingly well.
