[ros-users] sbpl as local reactive planner for a car like robot

Hi,
I'm new to ros. I tried the sbpl_Lattice_Planner example which is
totally impressing. I changed the motion primitive file to get a global
plan for a car like robot.

My problem is that the BaseLocalPlanner in the move_base stack is not
suitable for car like robots (turning in place commands are used and no
backward directed velocity commands are computed) and the robot does not
move along the planned path.

Is it possible to use the sbpl lib as local reactive planner for
obstacle avoidance or is this computational infeasible? 

What would be the best starting point to see how to realize this
reactive sbpl planner (I already did the basic tutorials)? Is there a
comparable node for example?

Best
Stefan
