چکیده

The Cycab robot is a new mobile platform already used in several research labs and meant to diierent applications such as public transportation in airport terminals , self-service cars in pedestrian zones, etc. From a kinematic point of view, the Cycab speciity is the turning of its rear wheels as a linear function of the steering angle of the front wheels. This feature enhances the maneuverability of the Cycab in cluttered environments. However, the associated kinematic model is new and diierent from the ones commonly treated in the robotics litera-ture(such as the car-like, tractor-trailer, etc). To our knowledge such a system has not yet been studied and especially, there is no existing motion planner for this system. In this paper, we tackle the study of this new nonholonomic system, by establishing its kinematic model and proving its diierential atness property. From this study we deduce a rst motion planner for the system.

From this study we deduce a rst motion planner for the system.

First results in eliminating crosstalk and noise by applying pseudo-random sequences to mobile robot sonar sensing

Crosstalk is one of the most severe problems in conventional mobile robot sonar sensing. This paper addresses the crosstalk-problem and presents first and promising results of a new approach which enables a mobile robot to fire its sonar sensors simultaneously while totally eliminating misreadings caused by crosstalk or external ultrasound sources. This is achieved by carefully designing the em...
