Vnik,

There wasn't but there is now. In the latest version you should now see a WAYPOINT_DISTANCE variable that indicates the distance from the robot to the next waypoint. Note that this is a straightline distance but should work for controlling speed.

Path planning next waypoint distance

Tue, 30 Nov 1999 00:11:00 EST

Hello STeven,

I have replicated the path planning tutorial and works perfectly, but i desire to improve the program to make the movement of the robot more smooth. So i have decided to make that the lineal velocity of the robot will be proportional to the distance that remains to the next waypoint, the problem is that i don't know what is the value of the distance for next waypoint that the robot should visit.

It's there a way to know what is the value of the distance from the current position of the robot to the next waypoint?

Thanks in advance.
