Video: Autonomous Task Planning and Execution - Using the RAFCON Task Planner Plugin
This video is a showcase, demonstrating how the RAFCON Task Planner Plugin (RTPP) can be used to automatically generate a RAFCON state machine, which is ready to be executed.
Therefore, we simulated the ROBEX moon analouge mission in Gazebo. We use it to show how the task of deploying a seismic network is planned by the plugin, and executed automatically by a rover, called Lightweight Rover Unit (LRU).
During the mission, the LRU has to grasp four seismometers, which are attached to a Lander, and deploy them as a seismic network. Before the LRU can execute this task, it has to be planned. That's where the RAFCON Task Planner Plugin comes into play: It uses a task description, and the robot's capabilities, to plan each step needed to accomplish the mission. Subsequently, it prepares the necessary state machine and runs it on the simulated LRU.
