چکیده
{ This paper presents a sensor based docking strategy for a non holonomic mobile platform used to support material transportation operations in industrial like environments. A low cost in-frared sensor system was designed and implemented, aiming at locating the mobile platform relative to the docking station where passive reeectors are installed. With this information, trajectories are generated and followed, docking the platform with a good accuracy (around 0:5cm in x and y, and 1 in), considering that the system was designed based on low cost sensors. The paper presents relevant experimental results.

Cooperative Control of Mobile Robots in Creating a Runway Platform for Quadrotor Landing
Multi-agent systems are systems in which several agents accomplish a mission in a cooperative manner. In this paper, a novel idea for the construction of a movable runway platform based on multi-agent systems is presented. It is assumed that an aerial agent (quadrotor) decides to make an emergency landing due to reasons such as a decrease in energy level or technical failure, while there is no ...
متن کاملDocking autonomous robots in passive docks with Infrared sensors and QR codes
In this paper, we describe an inexpensive and easy to deploy docking solution in passive charging docks for autonomous mobile robots. The objective is to achieve long-term autonomous robots within an experiment test-bed. We propose to combine the use of QR codes as landmarks and Infrared distance sensors. The relative size of the lateral edges of the visual pattern is used to position the robot...
