  2. 11. Repeated Path Planning for Mobile Robots in Dynamic Environments

    Author : Maarja Kruusmaa; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; decision-making; mobile robot; case-based reasoning; navigation; dynamic environments; path planning;

    Abstract : This thesis presents a global navigation strategy for repeated traverse of mobile robots in dynamic environments. The research is motivated by the fact that most real-world applications of mobile robotics imply repeated traverse between predefined target points in large, uncertain real-world domains. READ MORE

  4. 12. Reactive Navigation Methods for Autonomous Robots: Safety, Coordination, and Field Deployment

    Author : Björn Lindqvist; George Nikolakopoulos; Christoforos Kanellakis; Alberto Bemporad; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Field Robotics; NMPC; Obstacle Avoidance; Collision Avoidance; Multi-agent Systems; Robot Navigation; Robotics and Artificial Intelligence; Robotik och artificiell intelligens;

    Abstract : In the new era of intelligent systems, small-scale electronics, and advanced sensors, the application use-cases and operational capabilities of autonomous robots are exponentially increasing. Through their ability to execute complex tasks while relying only on onboard sensors and computation, autonomous field robots are showing promising results in inspection of infrastructure, search-and-rescue or surveillance, maintenance tasks, or in general operations in areas that prove to be dangerous or hazardous for human operators to enter, while also often increasing the efficiency of such tasks.

  5. 13. Mobile robot navigation using non-contact sensors

    Author : Johan Forsberg; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Industrial Electronics; Industriell elektronik;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns localization and control of mobile robots using range measurements from optronic sensors, in particular scanning time-of-flight lasers. The thesis covers the localization algorithms, on-line sensor calibration and tele-operation for semi-autonomous control of mobile robots. READ MORE

  7. 15. On a laser anglemeter for mobile robot navigation

    Author : Kalevi Hyyppä; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Industriell elektronik; Industrial Electronics;

    Abstract : A laser anglemeter for use in a navigation system for mobile robots has been developed. The anglemeter measures heading angles to beacons made of vertical stripes of retroreflective tape. The anglemeter uses an- optical system with a rotating mirror. READ MORE
