HeterBot: A heterogeneous mobile manipulation robot for versatile operation
IET Cyber-Systems and Robotics, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2023., 2023 Abstract This study presents the overall architecture of HeterBot, a heterogeneous mobile manipulation robot developed in our lab, which is designed for versatile operation in hazardous environments. The most significant feature of HeterBot is the heterogeneous design created by adopting the idea of ‘big arm + small arm’ and ‘big car + mini car’.

The Path Planning and Location Method of Inspection Robot in a Large Storage Tank Bottom
Computational Intelligence and Neuroscience, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023 With the development of robot technology, inspection robots have been applied to the defect detection of large tanks. However, the existing path planning algorithm of the tank bottom detection robot is easy to fall into the local minimum, and the path is not smooth. Besides, the positioning of the tank bottom detection robot is not accurate.

Proximal policy optimization based dynamic path planning algorithm for mobile robots
Electronics Letters, Volume 58, Issue 1, Page 13-15, January 2022., 2022 Abstract For the scenario where the overall layout is known and the obstacle distribution information is unknown, a dynamic path planning algorithm combining the A* algorithm and the proximal policy optimization (PPO) algorithm is proposed. Simulation experiments show that in all six test environments, the proposed algorithm finds paths that are on ...
