Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce mémoire aborde le problème de l'exécution d'une trajectoire pour un robot mobile à roues soumis à des contraintes non-holonomes. Le but est de développer une méthode permettant d'éviter les collisions dûes aux erreurs de localisation du robot dans son environnement, aux obstacles inconnus et aux imprécisions du plan de l'environnement. La méthode s'appuie sur une technique générique de déformation de trajectoire. Les obstacles perçus au cours du mouvement génèrent des forces virtuelles qui repoussent la trajectoire au loin tout en garantissant le respect des contraintes non-holonomes. La méthode de calcul des forces virtuelles est décrite en détail pour différents systèmes. L'algorithmique nécessaire à l'exécution simultanée de la déformation et du suivi d'une trajectoire en respectant les limitations cinématiques du robot est présenté. Des résultats expérimentaux sur des robots réels sont présentés dans le mémoire.

Download or read book Nonholonomic Motion Planning written by Zexiang Li and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nonholonomic Motion Planning grew out of the workshop that took place at the 1991 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation. It consists of contributed chapters representing new developments in this area. Contributors to the book include robotics engineers, nonlinear control experts, differential geometers and applied mathematicians. Nonholonomic Motion Planning is arranged into three chapter groups: Controllability: one of the key mathematical tools needed to study nonholonomic motion. Motion Planning for Mobile Robots: in this section the papers are focused on problems with nonholonomic velocity constraints as well as constraints on the generalized coordinates. Falling Cats, Space Robots and Gauge Theory: there are numerous connections to be made between symplectic geometry techniques for the study of holonomies in mechanics, gauge theory and control. In this section these connections are discussed using the backdrop of examples drawn from space robots and falling cats reorienting themselves. Nonholonomic Motion Planning can be used either as a reference for researchers working in the areas of robotics, nonlinear control and differential geometry, or as a textbook for a graduate level robotics or nonlinear control course.

This book was released on 2011-09-26 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Overview Recent years have seen an increasing interest in the development of multi-sensory robot systems. The reason for this interest stems from a realization that there are fundamental limitations on the reconstruction of environment descriptions using only a single source of sensor information. If robot systems are ever to achieve a degree of intelligence and autonomy, they must be capable of using many different sources of sensory information in an active and dynamic manner. The observations made by the different sensors of a multi-sensor system are always uncertain, usually partial, occasionally spuri9us or incorrect and often geographically or geometrically imcomparable with other sensor views. The sensors of these systems are characterized by the diversity of information that they can provide and by the complexity of their operation. It is the goal of a multi sensor system to combine information from all these different sources into a robust and consistent description of the environment.
