HowTos and Practical Guides

This section contains a curated collection of HowTos and short guides for EasyNavigation (EasyNav). Each document provides step-by-step instructions to accomplish specific tasks, from mapping to configuring controllers and running navigation examples.

If you are new to EasyNav, start with Build & Install and Getting Started. Most HowTos run on the PlayGrounds.

πŸ“˜ Overview

The HowTos are grouped by category:

  • Costmap navigation – 2D costmaps for mapping, localization, planning and routes. The reference for indoor robots.

  • NavMap + Bonxai navigation – 3D surfaces and voxel maps, outdoors and indoors.

  • Simple navigation – the minimal Simple stack, to learn how EasyNav works.

  • Controllers – configuring and tuning controllers for different robots.

  • Behaviors – using EasyNav from any application or behavior.

  • General – ways to do something independent of a specific stack.

  • Deprecated – guides for components no longer maintained by EasyNavigation.
