Cartesian Planner ROS Package

C++/ROS Source Codes for "Autonomous Driving on Curvy Roads without Reliance on Frenet Frame: A Cartesian-based Trajectory Planning Method" published in IEEE Trans. Intelligent Transportation Systems by Bai Li, Yakun Ouyang, Li Li, and Youmin Zhang.

Installation

Requirements

• ROS Melodic or later
• Python3

Install packages required by Ipopt

sudo apt-get install gcc g++ gfortran git patch wget pkg-config liblapack-dev libmetis-dev

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

OPTIONAL: build and install Harwell Subroutine Library (HSL) (recommended for better performance)

git clone https://github.com/coin-or-tools/ThirdParty-HSL.git

# Obtain a tarball with HSL source code from http://www.hsl.rl.ac.uk/ipopt/ and unpack this tarball
tar -zxvf 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

# create symlink for Ipopt
sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/libcoinhsl.so /usr/local/lib/libhsl.so
# Re-build workspace
cd ~/catkin_ws && catkin_make -DWITH_HSL=ON

Example
