Motion Safety for an Autonomous Vehicle Race in an Urban Environment
نویسنده
چکیده
The 2007 Darpa grand challenge is a 100 km race between autonomous vehicles in an urban environment. This paper presents the results of kinematic motion study in order to quantify the minimum perception range requirements of a canonical set of manoeuvres that are required for the event. The paper also considers the potential advantage that a course reversal strategy may provide competitors that field small, tight-turning vehicles.

Towards urban driverless vehicles
This paper addresses the problem of autonomous navigation of a car-like robot evolving in an urban environment. Such an environment exhibits an heterogeneous geometry and is cluttered with moving obstacles. Furthermore, in this context, motion safety is a critical issue. The proposed approach to the problem lies in the design of perception and planning modules that consider explicitly the dynam...

متن کاملObstacle avoidance for an autonomous vehicle using force field method
This paper presents a force field concept for guiding a vehicle at a high speed maneuver. This method is similar to potential field method. In this paper, motion constrains like vehicles velocity, distance to obstacle and tire conditions and such lane change conditions as zero slop condition and zero lateral acceleration are discussed. After that, possible equations as vehicles path ar...
متن کاملA Robust Motion Planning Approach for Autonomous Driving in Urban Areas
This thesis presents an improved sampling-based motion planning algorithm, Robust RRT, that is designed specifically for large robotic vehicles and uncertain, dynamic environments. Five main extensions have been made to the original RRT algorithm to improve performance in this type of applications. The closed-loop system is used for state propagation, enabling easy handling of complex, nonlinea...
متن کاملAn automated time and hand motion analysis based on planar motion capture extended to a virtual environment
In the context of industrial engineering, the predetermined time systems (PTS) play an important role in workplaces because inefficiencies are found in assembly processes that require manual manipulations. In this study, an approach is proposed with the aim to analyze time and motions in a manual process using a capture motion system embedded to a virtual environment. Capture motion system trac...
