# RRT*-Connect
ROS Implementation of the RRT*-Connect algorithm. The algorithm is mostly developed as a novel algorithm developed as a combination of RRT* [1] and RRT-Connect [2], but is in essence very similar to the algorithm described in [3].

## Running the code

The code is developed using Python 2.7 and ROS Kinetic. The code was tested on Ubuntu 16.04. To run the code, navigate to your Catkin workspace and run:

1. ROS Core:      `roscore`
2. Map position:  `rosrun map_server map_server ./src/rrt_star_connect/map_position.yaml _frame_id:="odom"`
3. Pioneer World: `rosrun stage_ros stageros ./src/rrt_star_connect/pioneer.world`
4. Pioneer RViz:  `roslaunch rrt_star_connect pioneerRviz.launch`
5. RViz:          `rosrun rviz rviz`
6. Wrapper:       `rosrun rrt_star_connect wrapper.py`
7. Path planning: `rosrun rrt_star_connect rrt_star_connect.py`

## Experimental results

Running the script `rrt_star_connect.py` will generate an output file, and also run a path planning simulation on the following map:

The map shows the robot in red, and a sample point used as the goal in this example in blue. The results will be shown live, and after the number of iterations specified, the path should converge to a very short path from the origin to the goal, similar to the following image:
