Mobile Robots in Smart Environments: The Current Situation
نویسندگان
چکیده
This work aims to give an overview about the current research concerning mobile robots in smart environments. It is part of the motivation of a paradigm that aims to shift complexity away from mobile machines into the (smart) environment without sacrificing the safety of the overall system. Several results of current and ongoing research will be presented, including a powerful simulation environment that allows to simulate the overall system including ambient sensors, communication within a wireless sensor network (WSN) and mobile robots. Also some experiments about the localization of mobile robots in smart environments and results will be presented.

A New Approach to Self-Localization for Mobile Robots Using Sensor Data Fusion
This paper proposes a new approach for calibration of dead reckoning process. Using the well-known UMBmark (University of Michigan Benchmark) is not sufficient for a desirable calibration of dead reckoning. Besides, existing calibration methods usually require explicit measurement of actual motion of the robot. Some recent methods use the smart encoder trailer or long range finder sensors such ...

Omni directional mobile robots have been popularly employed in several applications especially in soccer player robots considered in Robocup competitions. However, Omni directional navigation system, Omni-vision system and solenoid kicking mechanism in such mobile robots have not ever been combined. This situation brings the idea of a robot with no head direction into existence, a comprehensi...
متن کاملFuzzy Motion Control for Wheeled Mobile Robots in Real-Time
Due to various advantages of Wheeled Mobile Robots (WMRs), many researchers have focused to solve their challenges. The automatic motion control of such robots is an attractive problem and is one of the issues which should carefully be examined. In the current paper, the trajectory tracking problem of WMRs which are actuated by two independent electrical motors is deliberated. To this end, and ...
متن کاملExperimental Analysis for Measuring Errors in Wheeled Mobile Robots (RESEARCH NOTE)
This paper presents experimental analysis of wheeled mobile robots. Mathematical modelling of the mobile robot is presented. The mobile robots consist of an omni-directional and three differential drive mobile robots are tested and moved in given trajectories and the systematic errors of the robots are determined. A new method for omni-direction mobile robot was introduced in which the robot wa...
متن کاملAmbient Ecologies and Activity Spheres
The vision of Ambient Intelligence (AmI) has already affected our daily life by changing the nature of almost every human activity. Already computation and networking has been embedded into devices and everyday environments, supporting the collection, processing and exchange of information, thus providing, in an increasingly intelligent way, situation and activity recognition, context represent...
