چکیده

Optical Rails [1] is a purely view-based method for autonomous track following with a mobile robot, based upon compact omnidirectional view descriptors using basis functions on the sphere. We address the most prominent points of criticism towards holistic methods for robot navigation: Dealing with occlusions and varying illumination. This is accomplished by slicing the omnidirectional view into segments, enabling dynamic visual fields capable of masking out occlusions while preserving proven, efficient paradigms for holistic view comparison and steering.

AGV (automated guided vehicle) robot: Mission and obstacles in design and performance

The AGV (automated guided vehicle) was introduced in UK in 1953 for transporting. But nowadays, due to their high efficiency, flexibility, reliability, safety and system scalability, they are used in various application in industries. In brief, the AGV robot is a system which typically made up of vehicle chassis, embedded controller, motors, drivers, navigation and collision avoidance sensors, ...

An Active View Planning Method for Mobile Robots Using A Trinocular Visual Sensor

The ability of mobile robots to perceive and recognize environments is essential for autonomous navigation. To improve the performance of autonomous environment perception for mobile robots, it is important to effectively plan the next pose (position and orientation) of the sensor system at a current navigation state. In this paper, we propose a nextview-planning method for autonomous map const...

Navigation of a Mobile Robot Using Virtual Potential Field and Artificial Neural Network

Mobile robot navigation is one of the basic problems in robotics. In this paper, a new approach is proposed for autonomous mobile robot navigation in an unknown environment. The proposed approach is based on learning virtual parallel paths that propel the mobile robot toward the track using a multi-layer, feed-forward neural network. For training, a human operator navigates the mobile robot in ...

Robot navigation based on view sequences stored in a sparse distributed memory

Robot navigation is a large area of research, where many different approaches have already been tried, including navigation based on visual memories. The Sparse Distributed Memory (SDM) is a kind of associative memory based on the properties of high-dimensional binary spaces. It exhibits characteristics, such as tolerance to noise and incomplete data, ability to work with sequences and the poss...
