Omnidirectional Mobile Home Care Robot

In modern manufacturing, robot arms are used in automated production, replacing humans to avoid risk, increase efficiency, and improve accuracy. Fixed robot arm technology is very well-developed worldwide. In our project, we designed a smart robot to expand the applications for which robot arms are traditionally used. The robot arm is installed on an omnidirectional mobile vehicle; a network ca...

The Development of the Omnidirectional Mobile Home Care Robot

In the last few years, intelligent robots were successfully fielded in hospitals (King, S., and Weiman, C, 1990), museums (Burgard, W. et al., 1999), and office buildings/department stores (Endres, H. et al. , 1998), where they perform cleaning services, deliver, educate, or entertain (Schraft, R., and Schmierer, G. , 2005). Robots have also been developed for guiding blind people, as well as r...

Path Following and Velocity Optimizing for an Omnidirectional Mobile Robot

In this paper, the path following controller of an omnidirectional mobile robot (OMR) has been extended in such a way that the forward velocity has been optimized and the actuator velocity constraints have been taken into account. Both have been attained through the proposed model predictive control (MPC) framework. The forward velocity has been included into the objective function, while the a...

JPEG backward compatible coding of omnidirectional images

Omnidirectional image and video, also known as 360 image and 360 video, are gaining in popularity with the recent growth in availability of cameras and displays that can cope with such type of content. As omnidirectional visual content represents a larger set of information about the scene, it typically requires a much larger volume of information. Efficient compression of such content is there...
