چکیده

Computer vision systems are today an important sensor for intelligent robotic systems. However, the design of a vision system that a robot can use as a fast and robust sensors in a complex, partially unknown and dynamic environment is still diicult. A main reason for this is that the parameters of vision systems are often adjusted by hand and remain static during the operation of the robot. In this paper we present an general architecture that adapts the the parameters of a segment based low-level vision system dynamically to increase its speed and robustness. Adaptation is done to a priori knowledge about the environment or to the sensor data itself. The architecture is implemented on a mobile robot using special hardware that allows real-time operation. Quantitative experimental data on its performance is given.

Robust Sliding Mode Controller for Trajectory Tracking and Attitude Control of a Nonholonomic Spherical Mobile Robot

Based on dynamic modeling, robust trajectory tracking control of attitude and position of a spherical mobile robot is proposed. In this paper, the spherical robot is composed of a spherical shell and three independent rotors which act as the inner driver mechanism. Owing to rolling without slipping assumption, the robot is subjected to two nonholonomic constraints. The state space representatio...

Trajectory Tracking Weeled Mobile Robot Using Backstepping Method with Connection off Axle Trailer

The connection of the tractor to the inactive trailer or motor vehicle causes a motion control problem when turning in the screw, forward or backward movements and high speeds. This is due to the inactive trailer being controlled by the tracking using a physical link that is not affected by the movement. Trailers usually take tracks under these conditions. This phenomenon is called Jack Knife. ...
