Revision history [back]

I don't see the problem here. If you want to avoid obstacles, then by definition you are moving. If you are moving then you can build an incremental map. If you mean you need to do global navigation then it simply becomes a matter of replaning your trajectory as you go when you find obstacles. I believe the ROS navigation stack supports this.
