Introduction: Vehicle-terrain interaction for mobile robots
The application of mobile robots to field environments has enabled significant advances in such diverse areas as agriculture, defense and security, planetary surface exploration, and mining. To successfully deploy a robot in an unstructured, outdoor environment, roboticists should consider the interaction of the robot and terrain. Often, this interaction is assumed to follow a simple Coulomb fr...
متن کاملVisual Terrain Classification for Outdoor Mobile Robots
In this thesis we present a comparison of multiple approaches to visual terrain classification for outdoor mobile robots based on local features. For this purpose, we put a camera on a mobile robot and use it to capture images which are then analyzed to recognize the terrains present in these images. There are two sets of approaches that we use to classify terrains. The first is based on greysc...
متن کاملOnline Terrain Classification For Mobile Robots
Todays unmanned ground vehicles (UGV) must operate in and increasingly general set of circumstances. These UGV’s must be able to provide stable controlability on whatever terrain they may encounter. A UGV might begin a assignment on asphalt but quickly be required to negotiate sand, mud, or even snow. Traversing these terrains can affect the performance and controllability of the vehicle. Like ...
متن کاملTerrain Classification Using Weakly-Structured Vehicle/Terrain Interaction
We present a new terrain classification technique both for effective, autonomous locomotion over rough, unknown terrains and for the qualitative analysis of terrains for exploration and mapping. Our approach requires a single camera with little processing of visual information. Specifically, we derived a gait bounce measure from visual servoing errors that results from vehicle-terrain interacti...
متن کاملTerrain-adaptive Generation of Optimal Continuous Trajectories for Mobile Robots
The problem of generating continuous trajectories for motion over general 3D terrain is important. The more naïve and common approach of compensating, in the execution phase, via feedback control, for an incorrect flat terrain assumption, is not always viable. The flat terrain assumption is also almost never necessary since the terrain shape must already be known for autonomous vehicles to oper...
