RRT* Based Local Planner for Autonomous Vehicles with Dynamic Obstacle Avoidance Capabilities

  • Implemented an RRT*-based local planner designed to generate smooth trajectories that minimize acceleration, adhering to the non-holonomic constraints of the Ackerman steering model.
  • Enhanced RRT* algorithm integration with velocity obstacle methods to effectively navigate dynamic obstacles.
  • Conducted comprehensive testing across various scenarios including crossroad, head-on, and overtaking maneuvers to validate collision avoidance effectiveness.
