Fuzzy Motion Control for Wheeled Mobile Robots in Real-Time
Due to various advantages of Wheeled Mobile Robots (WMRs), many researchers have focused to solve their challenges. The automatic motion control of such robots is an attractive problem and is one of the issues which should carefully be examined. In the current paper, the trajectory tracking problem of WMRs which are actuated by two independent electrical motors is deliberated. To this end, and ...
متن کاملReal-time shape estimation for continuum robots using vision
This paper describes external camera-based shape estimation for continuum robots. Continuum robots have a continuous backbone made of sections which bend to produce changes of configuration. A major difficulty with continuum robots is the determination of the robot’s shape, as there are no discrete joints. This paper presents a method for shape determination based on machine vision. Using an en...
متن کاملReal-Time 3D Reconstruction of Dexterous Continuum Surgical Robots
Dexterous continuum surgical robots are of increasing interest to researchers given their ability to reach remote areas within the body by moving in highly curved paths. Knowing the configuration of the robot at any time is important for precise control and accurate performance during surgical procedures. Although kinematic models have been developed for some of these robots, these models are o...
متن کاملKinematics for Constrained Continuum Robots Using Wavelet Decomposition
Over the past several years, there has been a rapidly expanding interest in the study and construction of a new class of robot manipulators which utilize high degree of freedom, or continuous, backbone structures. In this paper, we consider some basic properties of these "continuum'' or "hyperredundant'' robots. We base our analysis around remotely-driven, tendon-actuated manipulators such as t...
متن کاملKinematics and the Implementation of an Elephant's Trunk Manipulator and Other Continuum Style Robots
Traditionally, robot manipulators have been a simple arrangement of a small number of serially connected links and actuated joints. Though these manipulators prove to be very effective for many tasks, they are not without their limitations, due mainly to their lack of maneuverability or total degrees of freedom. Continuum style (i.e., continuous "back-bone") robots, on the other hand, exhibit a...
