[Motion planning algorithm project combat] How to use the Pure Pursuit algorithm for path tracking (with ROS C++ code)

---

foreword

In the field of autonomous driving and robot navigation, path tracking is a key technology that enables a vehicle or robot to move according to a predetermined path plan. The choice of path tracing algorithm is critical to system performance and security. This article will introduce a commonly used and effective path tracing algorithm - Pure Pursuit algorithm. We will discuss in detail the principle of the Pure Pursuit algorithm, the implementation steps, and how to apply the algorithm for path tracking in autonomous driving and robotic systems.
