Installation

Building dependencies

1. Build linear solver Mumps or HSL

   1. Build mumps

      git clone https://github.com/coin-or-tools/ThirdParty-Mumps.git --depth=1
      cd ThirdParty-Mumps
      ./get.Mumps
      ./configure
      make
      sudo make install

   2. Build HSL (recommended for better performance)

      git clone https://github.com/coin-or-tools/ThirdParty-HSL.git --depth=1
      
      # Obtain a tarball with HSL source code from http://www.hsl.rl.ac.uk/ipopt/ and unpack this tarball
      gunzip coinhsl-x.y.z.tar.gz
      tar xf coinhsl-x.y.z.tar
      
      # Rename the directory `coinhsl-x.y.z` to `coinhsl`, or set a symbolic link:
      ln -s coinhsl-x.y.z coinhsl
      
      ./configure
      make
      sudo make install

2. Build and install IPOPT

   sudo apt install wget unzip gfortran liblapack-dev patch pkg-config libmetis-dev
   wget https://github.com/coin-or/Ipopt/archive/refs/heads/stable/3.14.zip
   unzip 3.14.zip && cd Ipopt-stable-3.14/
   ./configure && make -j4
   sudo make install

3. Build and install CASADi

   wget https://github.com/casadi/casadi/releases/download/3.5.5/casadi-3.5.5-1.tar.gz
   tar -zxvf casadi-3.5.5-1.tar.gz
   cd casadi-3.5.5.1
   mkdir build && cd build
   cmake .. -DWITH_IPOPT=ON -DWITH_EXAMPLES=OFF
   make -j4
   sudo make install
   sudo ldconfig

4. Clone repository to any catkin workspace and compile workspace

   cd ~/catkin_ws/src
   git clone https://github.com/libai1943/CartesianPlanner.git cartesian_planner
   cd .. && catkin_make
   source devel/setup.bash

Example

tits_pedestrian_static_dynamic_3.mp4

Random test case with 6 pedestrians, 3 moving vehicles and 2 static vehicles.

roslaunch cartesian_planner pedestrian_test.launch

Click anywhere in Rviz window with the 2D Nav Goal Tool to start planning.
