A new distributed real-time control system for the JASON underwater robot
نویسندگان
چکیده
The design, implementation, and deployment of a new computer system for closed loop control of the JASON underwater robot at full ocean depth is described. Several design principles for the rapid development of large scale robot control systems are articulated and illustrated with examples from the JASON system. (i) The use of subsystems with differing computer architectures permit effective matching of capability to function. (ii) A two-part system design partitions safety-critical from non safety-critical subsystems for cost-effective implementation and enhancement. (iii) A machine-independent messagepassing communication protocol, JasonTalk, enables integration of disparate computer architectures into a unified system. Results from a recent JASON deployment in the Pacific Ocean are discussed.

The present study deals with a robot safety system composed of standby robot units and inbuilt safety unit. When the main operative unit fails, it is replaced by the standby robot unit available in the system. The concept of reboot delay is also incorporated in this study according to which the robot unit is rebooted if it is not successfully recovered. The recovery and reboot times of failed u...
متن کاملIdentification of an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Dynamic Using Extended Kalman Filter with ARMA Noise Model
In the procedure of designing an underwater vehicle or robot, its maneuverability and controllability must be simulated and tested, before the product is finalized for manufacturing. Since the hydrodynamic forces and moments highly affect the dynamic and maneuverability of the system, they must be estimated with a reasonable accuracy. In this study, hydrodynamic coefficients of an autonomous un...
