Good afternoon,

I faced the problem and can't fix it related to teb_local_planner. The planner builds the global path very good, however, the local planner is very bad. It is very curved.

As you can see in the image above, the yellow line is a global path and the black one is a local path. My prediction is that probably I have to say to the planner that my robot can perform in_plac_rotation, but I don't know is it possible with teb_local_planner. Also maybe I have to forbid backward movements.

Does anyone have an idea about that problem?

Thank you Regards,

The local planner output is correct as it is the time-optimal solution for your parameter setting. Turning while moving forward is faster than rotating in place given your linear and angular velocity resp. acceleration limits.

However, you can tweak the behavior, as you said, by further penalizing backward motions according to this question and answer.

You can also have a look at the path following mode in case this is your preferred objective.

@croesmann thank you for your fast answer and help. I have set the backward motion to 0.0 and now will try to navigate. So as far as I understand there is no option to turn on only in place rotation.

@croesmann I want to ask also, is it possible to set min velocity (linear and rotation). Because the robot rotates too fast.

I have also received this (((

Please follow the complete steps in my link. You must set weight_kinematics_forward_drive to a very large value. You cannot set minimum limits.

Backward velocity should be at least set to penalty_epsilon to avoid numerical issues. I am not sure yet, if I detect this programmatically

@croesmann I did what you suggested. However, my robot always turns to much and even with a straight line direction it moves likes a snake.

I also have that warning: TebLocalPlannerROS: possible oscillation (of the robot or its local plan) detected. Activating recovery strategy (prefer current turning direction during optimization).

Do you have any idea? Thank you

@croesmann I added an additional photo, which represents how the robot started to move. Initially, the route was just a straight line, but the robot moves up and then start to move back down.

@croesmann Sorry maybe you know the answer for that question, the planner pan local plan through the table. Check please last image .
