9.2 User input
To enable the robot to navigate autonomously, you must provide the following:
•
A map of the area, either from a .png file or created with the robot using the mapping
function—see
Creating and configuring maps on page 124
.
•
A goal destination on that map—see
.
•
The current position of the robot on the map. This usually only needs to be provided when
a new map is activated.
Figure 9.2. On the map, the current position of the robot is identified by the robot icon , and the goal
destination in this example is the robot position . The robot computer now determines a path from the
current position to the goal position.
Once the robot computer has a map with the robot's current position and a goal destination,
it begins planning a route between the two positions on the map using the global planner.
9.3 Global planner
The global planner is an algorithm in the robot computer that generates a path to the goal
position. This path is known as the global path.
