This paper presents a tutorial overview of path integral (PI) control approaches for stochastic optimal control and trajectory optimization. We concisely summarize the theoretical development of path integral control to compute a solution for stochastic optimal control and provide algorithmic descriptions of the cross-entropy (CE) method, an open-loop controller using the receding horizon scheme known as the model predictive path integral (MPPI), and a parameterized state feedback controller based on the path integral control theory. We discuss policy search methods based on path integral control, efficient and stable sampling strategies, extensions to multi-agent decision-making, and MPPI for the trajectory optimization on manifolds. For tutorial demonstrations, some PI-based controllers are implemented in Python, MATLAB and ROS2/Gazebo simulations for trajectory optimization. The simulation frameworks and source codes are publicly available at https://github.com/INHA-Autonomous-Systems-Laboratory-ASL/An-Overview-on-Recent-Advances-in-Path-Integral-Control.
