As a team, this past week our overarching goal was to get multiple robots operating on the field simultaneously. To accomplish this, several modifications needed to be made to the planner. \u00a0These included: fixing the planner heuristics for a more optimal path, restricting the buffer for the robot’s approach angle to the pallet on pickup, modifying the collision checker to be more efficient, and updating the robot collision radius. We also added the robot’s functionality to process several pallet pick-up rounds for situations where there are more pallets than robots on the field.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
