Free-path-type guidance system does not need a hardwired path in the environment so that it gives a mobile robot a flexible path. ln this study to achieve the free-path-type guidance system for a mobile robot which is steered by the differential steering of both drive forewheels, position recognition systems are constructed using odometer system as an internal position sensor. Two odometer systems, a auxiliary wheel odometer and a 2-encoder odometer system are constructed and path following algorithms using these odometer systems are designed and experimented. PID control type is adopted in the path following algorithms.

This paper presents a new approach to the design of cruise control system of a mobile robot with two drive wheel. The proposed control scheme uses a Gaussian function as a unit function in the fuzzy-neural network and back propagation algorithm to train the fuzzy-neural network controller in the framework of the specialized loaming architecture. It is Proposed a learning controller consisting of two neural network-fuzzy based on independent reasoning and a connection net with fixed weights to simply the neural networks-fuzzy. The performance of the proposed controller is shown by performing the computer simulation for trajectory tucking of the speed and azimuth of a mobile robot driven by two independent wheels.

Recently, number of navigation system using GPS and other complementary sensors has been developed to offer high-position accuracy. In this paper, an integration of GPS and Dead-Reckoning, which consists of a fiber optical gyroscope and two high-precision wheel-motor encoders for a unmanned navigation system, is presented. The main objective of this integrated GPS/DR unmanned navigation system is to provide accurate position and heading navigation data continuously for autonomous mobile robot. We propose a method for increasing the accuracy of the estimated position of the mobile robot by its DR sensors, high-precision wheel-motor encoders and a fiber optical gyroscope. We used Kalman filter theory to combine GPS and DR measurements. The performance of GPS/DR navigation system is evaluated.

This paper presents the development and control of a two wheeled car-like mobile robot using balancing mechanism whose heading control is done by turning the handle. The mobile inverted pendulum is a combined system of a mobile robot and an inverted pendulum system. A sensor fusion technique of low cost sensors such as a gyro sensor and a tilt sensor to measure the balancing angle of the inverted pendulum robot system accurately is implemented. Experimental studies of the trajectory following control task has been conducted by command of steering wheel while balancing.

본 논문은 모바일 로봇의 SLAM(Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) 구현 시 사용되는 스캔매칭을 위한 회전오차에 강인한 대응점 탐색 기법을 제시한다. 많은 모바일 로봇의 연구에 차동구동방식의 구동부가 사용되는데, 이는 곡선 주행이나 제자리 회전을 위해 두 모터의 속력을 다르게 하거나, 반대 방향으로 제어하게 된다. 이러한 경우 직선 주행에 비해 비교적 바퀴의 미끄러짐 현상(Wheel Slip)을 심화시켜 모바일 로봇의 누적 위치 오차를 증가시키는 요인이 된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 모바일 로봇의 회전 반경을 기반으로 최근접점을 추출하는 대응점 탐색 기법을 통해 스캔매칭 성능을 향상시키고자 한다. 제안된 방법의 검증을 위해 LRF(Laser Range Finder)를 이용해 실험을 진행하였으며, 기존 알고리즘에 주로 적용되는 유클리디안 최근접점 기반의 대응점 탐색 알고리즘과 비교한 결과, 제안된 대응점 탐색 기법이 보다 정확하게 대응점 집합을 추출하는 것을 확인했다.

Accurate kinematic parameters of mobile robots are essential because inaccurate kinematic model produces considerable uncertainties on its odometry and control. Especially, kinematic parameters of caster type mobile robots are important due to their complex kinematic model. Despite the importance of accurate kinematic parameters for caster type mobile robots, few research dealt with the calibration of the kinematic model. Previous study proposed a calibration method that can only calibrate double-wheeled caster type mobile robot and requires direct-measuring of robot center point and distance between casters. This paper proposes a calibration method based on geometric approach that can calibrate single-wheeled caster type mobile robot with two or more casters, does not require direct-measuring, and can successfully acquire all kinematic parameters required for control and odometry. Simulation and hardware experiments conducted in this paper validates the proposed calibration method and shows its performance.

전통적인 자동차 또는 전통적인 두 바퀴형 차동 구동 로봇은 기구적인 구조 때문에 이동 동작에 제한이 있을 수밖에 없다. 자동차 산업에서 내연기관 자동차가 전기차로 빠르게 전환되면서 자동차에 로봇 공학 기술의 적용이 활발하게 모색되고 있다. 로봇 공학 분야에서는 이동체의 자세를 변화시키지 않고도 다양한 방향으로 이동할 수 있는 전방향 이동로봇에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되어 왔으며 주목할 만한 연구 결과들도 많다. 하지만 대부분의 연구에서 이와 같은 전방향 이동을 구현하기 위해서는 메카넘휠 등과 같은 특수한 형태의 바퀴를 사용해야 하는 제한점이 있다. 우리는 전방향 이동을 위한 특수한 바퀴를 사용하지 않고도 전방향성을 구현할 수 있는 두 바퀴를 갖는 모듈형 로봇을 제안하였었다. 본 논문에서는 모듈형 로봇 2대를 전후로 결합하여 네 바퀴를 갖는 전방향 이동로봇을 새로이 제안하였다. 제안된 로봇은 차동 구동 방식의 이동로봇으로 전자브레이크를 사용하여 바퀴부와 로봇 몸체부를 선택적으로 분리, 결합하는 방식을 사용하며 두 개의 절대치형 엔코더와 네 개의 증분형 엔코더를 사용하여 로봇 바퀴부의 위치와 로봇 바퀴의 속도를 제어한다. 제안된 로봇은 일반적인 타이어 바퀴를 채택하고도 전방향 이동이 가능하다. 로봇을 실 제작하여 대각선 궤적과 정사각형 궤적에서의 주행 실험을 통하여 제안된 로봇의 유용성과 안정성을 검증하였다.

In this paper, we develop a detailed full dynamic model which includes various rough terrains for 6-wheel skid-steering mobile robot based on the real experimental autonomous vehicle called Dog-Horse Robot. We also design a co-simulation for performance comparison of path tracking algorithms. The control architecture in the co-simulation can be divided into two levels. The high level control is the closed-loop control of path tracking to follow a given path, and the low level is concerned about torque control of wheel motion. The simulation using the mechanical data of the Dog-Horse Robot is performed under the Matlab/Simulink environment. We also simulate and evaluate the performance of the model based adaptive controller.

In this paper, we identify the isotropic configurations of an omnidirectional mobile robot with three caster wheels, depending on the selection of actuated joints. First, We obtain the kinematic model of a caster wheeled omnidirectional mobile robot(COMR) without matrix inversion. For a given task velocity, the instantaneous motion of each wheel is decomposed into two orthogonal instantaneous motions of the steering and the rotating joints. Second, with the characteristic length introduced, we derive the isotropy conditions of a COMR having $n({\ge}3)$ actuated joints, which are imposed on two Jacobian matrices, $A{\in}R^{n{\times}3}$ and $B{\in}R^{6{\times}6}$. Under the condition of $B{\propto}I_6$, three caster wheels should have identical structure with the length of the steering link equal to the radius of the wheel. Third, depending on the selection of actuated joints, we derive the conditions for $A^t$ $A{\propto}I_3$ and identify the isotropic configurations of a COMR. All possible actuation sets with different number of actuated joints and different combination of rotating and steering joins are considered.
