A Trajectory Tracking Control of a Skid Steered Mobile Cleaning Robot

open access: yesProceedings of the 12th International Conference on Informatics in Control, Automation and Robotics, 2015
Cleaning accumulated dusts inside air ventilation ducts of underground facilities is an essential process to improve indoor air quality, especially at the underground facilities such as subway platforms. Therefore, various autonomous mobile duct cleaning robots have been actively studied to be applied at the closed space of the ventilation duct.

Fast Simulation of Vehicles with Non-deformable Tracks

open access: yes, 2017
This paper presents a novel technique that allows for both computationally fast and sufficiently plausible simulation of vehicles with non-deformable tracks. The method is based on an effect we have called Contact Surface Motion.

Task-Space Control of Articulated Mobile Robots With a Soft Gripper for Operations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
A task-space method is presented for the control of a head-raising articulated mobile robot, allowing the trajectory tracking of a tip of a gripper located on the head of the robot in various operations, e.g., picking up an object and rotating a valve ...

Kick control: using the attracting states arising within the sensorimotor loop of self-organized robots as motor primitives

open access: yes, 2018
Self-organized robots may develop attracting states within the sensorimotor loop, that is within the phase space of neural activity, body, and environmental variables.

Adaptive neuro-fuzzy technique for autonomous ground vehicle navigation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This article proposes an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) for solving navigation problems of an autonomous ground vehicle (AGV). The system consists of four ANFIS controllers; two of which are used for regulating both the left and right ...

DYNAMICS BASED CONTROL OF A SKID STEERING MOBILE ROBOT

open access: yesJurnal Ilmu Komputer dan Informasi, 2016
In this paper, development of a reduced order, augmented dynamics-drive model that combines both the dynamics and drive subsystems of the skid steering mobile robot (SSMR) is presented. A Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) control algorithm with feed-forward compensation of the disturbances part included in the reduced order augmented dynamics-drive ...

Design of a Fuzzy Logic Controller for Skid Steer Mobile Robot [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The control problem of four-wheeled skid steering mobile robots is quite challenging mainly because the skid steering system is an underactuated system and its mathematical model is highly uncertain.

Navigation without localisation: reliable teach and repeat based on the convergence theorem

open access: yes, 2018
We present a novel concept for teach-and-repeat visual navigation. The proposed concept is based on a mathematical model, which indicates that in teach-and-repeat navigation scenarios, mobile robots do not need to perform explicit localisation.

Development and Control of Articulated Mobile Robot for Climbing Steep Stairs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In this paper, we develop an articulated mobile robot that can climb stairs, and also move in narrow spaces and on 3-D terrain. This paper presents two control methods for this robot.

Improving the Robustness of Visual Teach‐and‐Repeat Navigation Using Drift Error Correction and Event‐Based Vision for Low‐Light Environments

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Visual teach‐and‐repeat (VTR) navigation allows robots to learn and follow routes without building a full metric map. We show that navigation accuracy for VTR can be improved by integrating a topological map with error‐drift correction based on stereo vision.
