NavGround is a comprehensive AI-driven navigation framework that delivers reactive motion planning, obstacle avoidance, and trajectory generation for differential drive and holonomic robots in 2D environments. It integrates dynamic map representations and sensor fusion to detect static and moving obstacles, applying velocity obstacle methods to compute collision-free velocities adhering to robot kinematics and dynamics. The lightweight C++ library offers a modular API with ROS support, enabling seamless integration with SLAM systems, path planners, and control loops. NavGround’s real-time performance and on-the-fly adaptability make it suitable for service robots, autonomous vehicles, and research prototypes operating in cluttered or dynamic scenarios. The framework’s customizable cost functions and extensible architecture facilitate rapid experimentation and optimization of navigation behaviors.

ePH-MAPF provides an efficient pipeline for computing collision-free paths for dozens to hundreds of agents on grid-based maps. It uses prioritized heuristics, incremental search techniques, and customizable cost metrics (Manhattan, Euclidean) to balance speed and solution quality. Users can select between different heuristic functions, integrate the library into Python-based robotics systems, and benchmark performance on standard MAPF scenarios. The codebase is modular and well-documented, enabling researchers and developers to extend it for dynamic obstacles or specialized environments.
