Bilateral Teleoperation of Wheeled Mobile Robots Working in Common Workspace
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper proposes a bilateral control framework for mobile robots which share the same workspace. The robots are teleoperated by independent users. Accordingly, for each teleoperated robot the other robots represent moving obstacles or static obstacles with a-priori unknown positions. For such teleoperation systems a velocity generator algorithm is proposed to obtain the linear and angular velocity commands of the mobile robots. A procedure is also given to calculate the haptic force corresponding to each mobile robot. To guarantee the stability of the teleoperation in the presence of large communication delays, a supervisor control algorithm is proposed which constantly monitors the stability of the teleoperation system. Experimental measurements are provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed bilateral teleoperation strategy.

Semi-autonomous Teleoperation of Multiple Wheeled Robots over the Internet
We propose a semi-autonomous teleoperation control framework for wheeled mobile robots with nonholonomic constraints and second-order Lagrangian dynamics over the Internet. The proposed control architecture consists of the two control-loops: 1) local autonomous formation control, which, residing in the common workspace of the robots, ensures rigid formationkeeping among the robots regardless of...

Wheel slippage creates control challenges for wheeled mobile robots (WMR). This paper proposes a new method for haptic teleoperation control of a WMR with longitudinal slippage by using the time-domain passivity control (TDPC) approach. We show the potential nonpassivity for the environment termination caused by the slippage dynamics. The utilized TDPC approach maintains the passivity of teleop...
