Exercise 4: Motion planning with differential constraints

Paper Exercises

In this exercise we will look at two different ways of implementing differential constraints

  • Lattice planning
  • Motion primitives

We will discuss and compare the advantages of the two in different applications. 

Paper exercises and solutions can be found in the exercise compendium Download exercise compendium.

It is recommended that you complete this paper exercise before moving on to the computer exercise.

Computer Exercises

In this exercise you will

  • Familiarize yourself a bit with the "car" we will be working with in Lab 1
  • Implement some motion primitives for the car
  • Implement two simple local motion planners for the car
