  • Pages : 340 pages

Download or read book Multisensor Fusion written by Rajive Joshi and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1999 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fusion of information from sensors with different physical characteristics, such as sight, touch, sound, etc., enhances the understanding of our surroundings and provides the basis for planning, decision-making, and control of autonomous and intelligent machines. The minimal representation approach to multisensor fusion is based on the use of an information measure as a universal yardstick for fusion. Using models of sensor uncertainty, the representation size guides the integration of widely varying types of data and maximizes the information contributed to a consistent interpretation. In this book, the general theory of minimal representation multisensor fusion is developed and applied in a series of experimental studies of sensor-based robot manipulation. A novel application of differential evolutionary computation is introduced to achieve practical and effective solutions to this difficult computational problem.

Book Advanced Optimization for Motion Control Systems

Download or read book Advanced Optimization for Motion Control Systems written by Jun Ma and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-01-24 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Precision motion control is strongly required in many fields, such as precision engineering, micromanufacturing, biotechnology, and nanotechnology. Although great achievements have been made in control engineering, it is still challenging to fulfill the desired performance for precision motion control systems. Substantial works have been presented to reveal an increasing trend to apply optimization approaches in precision engineering to obtain the control system parameters. In this book, we present a result of several years of work in the area of advanced optimization for motion control systems. The book is organized into two parts: Part I focuses on the model-based approaches, and Part II presents the data-based approaches. To illustrate the practical appeal of the proposed optimization techniques, theoretical results are verified with practical examples in each chapter. Industrial problems explored in the book are formulated systematically with necessary analysis of the control system synthesis. By virtue of the design and implementation nature, this book can be used as a reference for engineers, researchers, and students who want to utilize control theories to solve the practical control problems. As the methodologies have extensive applicability in many control engineering problems, the research results in the field of optimization can be applied to full-fledged industrial processes, filling in the gap between research and application to achieve a technology frontier increment.

Book Sensing  Intelligence  Motion

Download or read book Sensing Intelligence Motion written by Vladimir J. Lumelsky and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2005-11-28 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A leap forward in the field of robotics Until now, most of the advances in robotics have taken place instructured environments. Scientists and engineers have designedhighly sophisticated robots, but most are still only able tooperate and move in predetermined, planned environments designedspecifically for the robots and typically at very high cost. Thisnew book takes robotics to the next level by setting forth thetheory and techniques needed to achieve robotic motion inunstructured environments. The ability to move and operate in anarbitrary, unplanned environment will lead to automating a widerange of new robotic tasks, such as patient care, toxic sitecleanup, and planetary exploration. The approach that opens the door for robots to handle unstructuredtasks is known as Sensing-Intelligence-Motion (SIM), which drawsfrom research in topology, computational complexity, controltheory, and sensing hardware. Using SIM as an underlyingfoundation, the author's carefully structured presentation isdesigned to: * Formulate the challenges of sensor-based motion planning and thenbuild a theoretical foundation for sensor-based motion planningstrategies * Investigate promising algorithmic strategies for mobile robotsand robot arm manipulators, in both cases addressing motionplanning for the whole robot body * Compare robot performance to human performance in sensor-basedmotion planning to gain better insight into the challenges of SIMand help build synergistic human-robot teams for tele-operationtasks. It is both exciting and encouraging to discover that robotperformance decisively exceeds human performance in certain tasksrequiring spatial reasoning, even when compared to trainedoperators * Review sensing hardware that is necessary to realize the SIMparadigm Some 200 illustrations, graphic sketches, and photos are includedto clarify key issues, develop and validate motion planningapproaches, and demonstrate full systems in operation. As the first book fully devoted to robot motion planning inunstructured environments, Sensing, Intelligence, Motion is amust-read for engineers, scientists, and researchers involved inrobotics. It will help them migrate robots from highly specializedapplications in factories to widespread use in society whereautonomous robot motion is needed.
