Sensor-based Collision Avoidance for Rope-suspended Autonomous Material Flow Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
A novel approach to collision avoidance concerning unknown dynamic obstacles is presented for a material flow system using an overhead travelling crane. The task involves the tracking of a desired trajectory derived from a path planning module based on a global map containing all static obstacles. The crane has been upgraded with three ultrasonic sensors which detect dynamic obstacles on the desired trajectory. Experimental results obtained from an implementation at the overhead travelling crane demonstrate the efficiency of this prototype of an autonomous material flow system. Copyright 2005 © IFAC

متن کاملOptic Flow Regulation in Unsteady Environments: A Tethered MAV Achieves Terrain Following and Targeted Landing Over a Moving Platform
Insects navigate swiftly through the most complex environments, often attaining a level of agility that greatly outperforms that of present-day aerial robots. Insects use optic flow (the retinal sleep on an agent retina of the contrasted objects in his environment) they perceive thanks to their compound eye to navigate autonomously in unknown environments. Insects use therefore principles to pe...
