This book was released on 2015-11-03 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The applications of mobile robots have grown significantly during the last few years due to the fast development in sensors and microprocessors systems. These applications include material handling, hospital services, military applications ... etc. The need for a precise motion control becomes very crucial in order to support such applications. The adaptive motion control for mobile robot is one of the important areas of research. The design of an adaptive kinematic controller for a nonholonomic differential drive mobile robot based on neural network topology is considered in this work, and work is divided into three stages. Firstly, to identify the inverse kinematics behavior of the differential drive mobile robot system, the Multi-Layer Perceptron neural network has been used. The second stage is the simulation test to check the robustness of the controller. The final stage is the practical work. A National Instrument differential drive mobile robot platform has been used which is perfectly compatible with the LabVIEW2011 software. The controller is implemented in LabVIEW2011 and then deployed to the mobile robot kit through a wireless communication.

Download or read book Learning for Adaptive and Reactive Robot Control written by Aude Billard and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2022-02-08 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Methods by which robots can learn control laws that enable real-time reactivity using dynamical systems; with applications and exercises. This book presents a wealth of machine learning techniques to make the control of robots more flexible and safe when interacting with humans. It introduces a set of control laws that enable reactivity using dynamical systems, a widely used method for solving motion-planning problems in robotics. These control approaches can replan in milliseconds to adapt to new environmental constraints and offer safe and compliant control of forces in contact. The techniques offer theoretical advantages, including convergence to a goal, non-penetration of obstacles, and passivity. The coverage of learning begins with low-level control parameters and progresses to higher-level competencies composed of combinations of skills. Learning for Adaptive and Reactive Robot Control is designed for graduate-level courses in robotics, with chapters that proceed from fundamentals to more advanced content. Techniques covered include learning from demonstration, optimization, and reinforcement learning, and using dynamical systems in learning control laws, trajectory planning, and methods for compliant and force control . Features for teaching in each chapter: applications, which range from arm manipulators to whole-body control of humanoid robots; pencil-and-paper and programming exercises; lecture videos, slides, and MATLAB code examples available on the author’s website . an eTextbook platform website offering protected material[EPS2] for instructors including solutions.

Download or read book Autonomous Tracked Robots in Planar Off Road Conditions written by Ramón González and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-03-22 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph is framed within the context of off-road mobile robotics. In particular, it discusses issues related to modelling, localization, and motion control of tracked mobile robots working in planar slippery conditions. Tracked locomotion constitutes a well-known solution for mobile platforms operating over diverse challenging terrains, for that reason, tracked robotics constitutes an important research field with many applications (e.g. agriculture, mining, search and rescue operations, military activities). The specific topics of this monograph are: historical perspective of tracked vehicles and tracked robots; trajectory-tracking model taking into account slip effect; visual-odometry-based localization strategies; and advanced slip-compensation motion controllers ensuring efficient real-time execution. Physical experiments with a real tracked robot are presented showing the better performance of the suggested novel approaches to known techniques. Keywords: longitudinal slip, visual odometry, slip-compensation control, robust predictive control, trajectory tracking.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the recent research advances in linear and nonlinear control techniques. From both a theoretical and practical standpoint, motion planning and related control challenges are key parts of robotics. Indeed, the literature on the planning of geometric paths and the generation of time-based trajectories, while accounting for the compatibility of such paths and trajectories with the kinematic and dynamic constraints of a manipulator or a mobile vehicle, is extensive and rich in historical references. Path planning is vital and critical for many different types of robotics, including autonomous vehicles, multiple robots, and robot arms. In the case of multiple robot route planning, it is critical to produce a safe path that avoids colliding with objects or other robots. When designing a safe path for an aerial or underwater robot, the 3D environment must be considered. As the number of degrees of freedom on a robot arm increases, so does the difficulty of path planning. As a result, safe pathways for high-dimensional systems must be developed in a timely manner. Nonetheless, modern robotic applications, particularly those requiring one or more robots to operate in a dynamic environment (e.g., human–robot collaboration and physical interaction, surveillance, or exploration of unknown spaces with mobile agents, etc.), pose new and exciting challenges to researchers and practitioners. For instance, planning a robot's motion in a dynamic environment necessitates the real-time and online execution of difficult computational operations. The development of efficient solutions for such real-time computations, which could be offered by specially designed computational architectures, optimized algorithms, and other unique contributions, is thus a critical step in the advancement of present and future-oriented robotics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The robotic mechanism and its controller make a complete system. As the robotic mechanism is reconfigured, the control system has to be adapted accordingly. The need for the reconfiguration usually arises from the changing functional requirements. This book will focus on the adaptive control of robotic manipulators to address the changed conditions. The aim of the book is to summarise and introduce the state-of-the-art technologies in the field of adaptive control of robotic manipulators in order to improve the methodologies on the adaptive control of robotic manipulators. Advances made in the past decades are described in the book, including adaptive control theories and design, and application of adaptive control to robotic manipulators.

Download or read book Adaptive Navigation and Motion Planning for Autonomous Mobile Robots written by Ashraf Aboshosha and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2011-10 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploring autonomy in robotics is a meaningful task. The intuitive definition of autonomy is the capability of a robot to make a decision based on its own knowledge, acquired by its distributed sensors, without any human interference. Throughout this framework we discuss some algorithms and techniques underlying the subjects of adaptive navigation, motion planning and sensor integration for autonomous mobile robots. Mobile Robots will play an important role in many future applications, such as personal and service robots, handicapped aid, entertainment, space exploration, medical applications, nuclear industry, surveillance or autonomous transportation. It is the mobility that distinguishes a mobile platform from robot manipulators and gives the possibility to actively and adaptively interact with the environment and humans. In real world environments actual mobile robot platforms will need increased adaptability and autonomy with better techniques for navigation safety, map building, obstacle avoidance and path planning. This research work will first focus on sensor integration and adapted interaction that is considered one of the major basic concepts for mobile platforms.
