Public Member Functions

 pRRT (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 bool 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 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). The function terminates if the call to ptc returns true.
virtual void clear (void)
 Clear all internal datastructures. Planner settings are not affected. Subsequent calls to solve() will ignore all previous work.
void setGoalBias (double goalBias)
 Set the goal bias.
double getGoalBias (void) const
 Get the goal bias the planner is using.
void setRange (double distance)
 Set the range the planner is supposed to use.
double getRange (void) const
 Get the range the planner is using.
void setThreadCount (unsigned int nthreads)
 Set the number of threads the planner should use. Default is 2.
unsigned int getThreadCount (void) const
template<template< typename T > class NN>
void setNearestNeighbors (void)
 Set a different nearest neighbors datastructure.
virtual void setup (void)
 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.

Detailed Description

Parallel RRT.

      @par Short description
      RRT is a tree-based motion planner that uses the following
      idea: RRT samples a random state @b qr in the state space,
      then finds the state @b qc among the previously seen states
      that is closest to @b qr and expands from @b qc towards @b
      qr, until a state @b qm is reached. @b qm is then added to
      the exploration tree.

Member Function Documentation

void ompl::geometric::pRRT::setGoalBias ( double  goalBias) [inline]

Set the goal bias.

In the process of randomly selecting states in the state space to attempt to go towards, the algorithm may in fact choose the actual goal state, if it knows it, with some probability. This probability is a real number between 0.0 and 1.0; its value should usually be around 0.05 and should not be too large. It is probably a good idea to use the default value.

void ompl::geometric::pRRT::setRange ( double  distance) [inline]

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.
