Abstract:

Recently, the use of quadrotors has increased in numerous applications, such as agriculture, rescue, transportation, inspection, and localization. Time-optimal quadrotor waypoint tracking is defined as controlling quadrotors to follow the given waypoints as quickly as possible. Although PID control is widely used for quadrotor control, it is not adaptable to environmental changes, such as various trajectories and dynamic external disturbances. In this work, we discover that adjusting PID control frequencies is necessary for adapting to environmental changes by showing that the optimal control

Abstract:

A visitor-following method that guides visitors as they move around was successfully developed without changing the structure of the waypoint navigation system. We previously developed a guidance robot, “EM-Ro,” to provide guidance services at the ECO35 Muffler Museum, and used the waypoint navigation system to implement a visitor-escort method along a predetermined route. With this visitor-following method, EM-Ro was able to follow a target visitor along visitor-derived waypoints, which were estimated using 2D LiDAR. Thus, the proposed navigation system for the guidance robot provides both vi

Abstract:

In view of the problem that path planning and trajectory tracking are rarely solved simultaneously in the current research, which hinders their practical implementation, this paper focuses on enhancing the autonomous flight planning capability of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) by investigating integrated path planning and trajectory tracking technologies. The autonomous flight process is divided into two sub-problems: waypoint designing/optimizing and waypoint tracking. Firstly, an improved DB-RRT* algorithm is proposed for waypoint planning to make the algorithm have higher planning efficien

This paper describes flight planning supported by modeling, guidance, and feedback control for an electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing (eVTOL) QuadPlane small Uncrewed Aircraft System (sUAS).

Novel accelerated coverage flight plan segments for hover (Lift) and coverage (Cruise) waypoint types are defined as a complement to traditional fly-over, fly-by, and Dubins path waypoint transit solutions.

Abstract:

Automated Driving Systems (ADSs) require robust and scalable control systems in order to achieve a safe, efficient and comfortable driving experience. Most global planners for autonomous vehicles provide as output a sequence of waypoints to be followed. This paper proposes a modular and scalable waypoint tracking controller for Robot Operating System (ROS)-based autonomous guided vehicles. The proposed controller performs a smooth interpolation of the waypoints and uses optimal control techniques to ensure robust trajectory tracking even at high speeds in urban environments (up to 50 km/h).

Abstract:

The availability of automatic identification system (AIS) data for tracking vessels has paved the way for improvements in maritime safety and efficiency. However, one of the main challenges in using AIS data is often the low quality of the data. Practically, AIS-based trajectory data of vessels are available at irregular time intervals; consequently, large temporal gaps often exist in the historical AIS data. Meanwhile, certain tasks such as waypoint detection using historical data, which involves finding locations along the trajectory where the vessel changes its course (and possibly speed, a

In this paper, a waypoint-based path tracking approach is suggested for the swarm robots to follow the desired path in an organized way. In the study, the applicability of the waypoint-based path tracking on the swarm robots that show flexible and scalable behavior has been demonstrated. To evaluate the proposed path planing approach with regard to scalability and flexibility, simulations have been applied in with/without obstacle arenas with different numbers of robots and according to different lookahead distances.

The BAUV swims forward by oscillating its body and caudal fin and turns by slanting its body and caudal fin to the side of turning direction. Because of the undulatory motion of BAUV, we take averages of swimming velocity and heading error during motion period as feedbacks to control the velocity and angular velocity of BAUV. We verify the effectiveness of control algorithms by simulations and experiments. Finally,

The problem of visual control of an autonomous indoor blimp is investigated in this chapter. Autonomous aerial vehicles have been an attractive platform for a wide range of applications, especially since they don’t have the terrain limitations the autonomous ground vehicles face. They have been used for advertisements, terrain mapping, surveillance, and environmental research. Blimps are a special kind of autonomous aerial vehicles; they are wingless and have the ability to hover. This makes them overcome the maneuverability constraints winged aerial vehicles and helicopters suffer from. The a

Quadrotor control is an exciting research area. Despite last years developments, some aspects demand a deeper analysis: How a quadrotor operates in challenging trajectories, how to define trajectory limits, or how changing physical characteristics of the device affects the performance. A visual interface development platform is a valuable tool to support this effort, and one of these tools is briefly described in this Chapter. The quadrotor model uses Newton-Euler equations with Euler angles, and considers the effect of air drag and propellers’ speed dynamics, as well as measurement noise and

Pose estimation and trajectory tracking of a spherical rolling robot is a complex problem owing to kinematics and dynamics of the system and the constraint of not being able to add range sensors like ultrasonic or infrared distance sensors on the robot. The pose estimate for the robot under study, needs to be derived purely using inertial measurement unit (IMU) and odometry from analog wheel encoders, which in turn include high uncertainties. Adding to this, the system kinematic and dynamic model to accurately predict the behavior is quite complex. In this paper we present a simplified kinemat
