What problem does it solve?

The waypoint follower is a Nav2 action server that accepts a list of poses and navigates to each sequentially, enabling patrol routes, multi-room navigation, and inspection tasks.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Sequential waypoint navigation: feed a list of poses and have the robot visit them in order, pausing or executing per-waypoint tasks as configured.
  • Per-waypoint task executors: plug-ins such as WaitAtWaypoint, PhotoAtWaypoint, and InputAtWaypoint can run when arriving at each waypoint.
  • Easy programmatic and BT integration: send waypoints from Python, and integrate with Behavior Trees or custom controllers for patrol patterns.
  • Robust configuration: tune loop_rate, stop_on_failure, action_server_result_timeout, and waypoint_task_executor_plugin for flexible patrol or inspection workflows.

Quick Start

Provide a list of PoseStamped waypoints and invoke the FollowWaypoints action to navigate them in order.
