Configure and tune DWB critic plugins to improve trajectory scoring, safety, and navigation performance in ROS 2.
Update the DWB critic scales in your YAML and execute the planner to see how trajectories are scored and selected.

Tune DWB critics by adjusting per-critic scale parameters in your YAML configuration file to influence trajectory scoring and selection in ROS 2 Nav2. This directly impacts how the local planner evaluates path costs, alignment, and obstacle avoidance.
Configure DWB critic ordering and short-circuiting in your Nav2 YAML to optimize planning speed and safety. Proper critic sequencing ensures trajectories are efficiently aligned and scored for narrow corridor navigation without unnecessary computational overhead.
Final orientation failures in differential-drive robots often stem from improperly tuned RotateToGoal critic scales in DWB. Adjusting the RotateToGoal critic parameters in your YAML configuration ensures the planner correctly scores and executes the final rotation behavior.
Reduce navigation oscillations by tuning the Oscillation critic parameters within your DWB YAML configuration. Adjusting the critic scale helps the ROS 2 local planner penalize repeating back-and-forth movements, stabilizing trajectory selection during transit.
Yes, DWB critic tuning is designed for indoor differential-drive robots using the ROS 2 navigation stack. It parameterizes PathDist, GoalDist, PathAlign, GoalAlign, and ObstacleFootprint critics to optimize trajectory scoring for indoor environments.
Adjust the ObstacleFootprint critic scale and related parameters in your DWB YAML configuration to improve obstacle avoidance. Tuning this critic influences how heavily the ROS 2 planner penalizes trajectories near obstacles, ensuring safer navigation paths.
