Path Planning

Path planning using RRT, RRT*, and BIT* for gridmaps.

You are now following this Submission

This is a path planner to be used with gridmaps, although future versions will expand into different map styles. A map is included titled map.mat, that can be used as an example. Before path planning execution the start point can be selected by cursor from the map, along with the corners of the goal boundary specified. The output is a visual including the map, with the expanded path planning tree and final path. The path planners currently utilized include RRT, RRT*, and BIT*.
