A ROS package implementing a local trajectory planner plugin for the 2D navigation stack based on Timed Elastic Bands. It locally optimizes robot trajectories for execution time, obstacle separation, and kinodynamic constraints, supporting differential-drive, omnidirectional, and car-like robots.

Use cases

  • plan smooth local trajectories for a differential-drive mobile robot in ROS
  • navigate a car-like robot with kinodynamic constraints
  • avoid dynamic obstacles while following a global plan
  • explore multiple homotopy classes for trajectory planning in cluttered environments
  • follow a global path with via-points while respecting robot dynamics
  • plan trajectories for omnidirectional robots with strafing motion

When to choose

  • you use the ROS navigation stack and need a robust local planner
  • your robot has non-holonomic, omnidirectional, or car-like kinematics
  • you need time-optimal trajectories that respect kinodynamic constraints
  • you want to handle dynamic obstacles and multiple homotopy classes

When to avoid

  • you are not using ROS or the ROS navigation stack
  • you need a global planner rather than a local planner
  • you work outside 2D navigation scenarios
  • you need a planner for aerial or manipulator robots
