Supervisory control of mobile robots using Sensory EgoSphere
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes the supervisory control of mobile robots using a biologically inspired short-term memory structure called a Sensory EgoSphere. The EgoSphere is implemented as a virtual geodesic dome upon which sensory data from the surroundings of the robot are written. The EgoSphere is managed by a distinct agent in a distributed agent-based robot control architecture called the Intelligent Machine Architecture. The paper also describes a human-robot interface and a testbed for evaluating the control system.

Toward Egocentric Navigation
A method for egocentric navigation of mobile robots is described. Each robot has a local short-term memory structure called the Sensory Egosphere (SES), which is indexed by azimuth, elevation, and time. Directional sensory processing modules write information on the SES at the location corresponding to the source direction. Each robot has a partial map of its operational area that it has receiv...

متن کاملSelf Control and Server- Supervisory Control for Multiple Mobile Robots, and its Applicability to Intelligent DNC System
Multiple mobile robots with six PSD (Position Sensitive Detector) sensors are designed for experimentally evaluating the performance of two control systems. They are self-control mode and server-supervisory control mode. The control systems are considered to realize swarm behaviors such as Ligia exotica. This is done by using only information of PSD sensors. Experimental results show basic but ...
