چکیده

The goal behind this paper is to find a generic method for controlling the motion of a robot relative to an object of an arbitrary shape. In this paper we study; 9 modelling laser range measurements for different type of objectslsurface properties. Outdoor scenes are emphasized. testing the distance transform on measurements for estimating the motion of a robot relative to an object of arbitmy shape. Emphasis in the present study is to get experience of the error mechanism in the distance transform when tested on cluttered laser measurements. Both natural and man-made objects are used and compared in the tests. 8

A New Approach to Self-Localization for Mobile Robots Using Sensor Data Fusion

This paper proposes a new approach for calibration of dead reckoning process. Using the well-known UMBmark (University of Michigan Benchmark) is not sufficient for a desirable calibration of dead reckoning. Besides, existing calibration methods usually require explicit measurement of actual motion of the robot. Some recent methods use the smart encoder trailer or long range finder sensors such ...

Navigation of a Mobile Robot Using Virtual Potential Field and Artificial Neural Network

Mobile robot navigation is one of the basic problems in robotics. In this paper, a new approach is proposed for autonomous mobile robot navigation in an unknown environment. The proposed approach is based on learning virtual parallel paths that propel the mobile robot toward the track using a multi-layer, feed-forward neural network. For training, a human operator navigates the mobile robot in ...

Mobile robot navigation using the range-weighted Hough transform

Accurate navigation of a mobile robot in cluttered rooms USing a range-measuring laser as a sensor has been achieved. To extract the directions and distances to the walls of the room the range-weighted Hough transform is used. The following experimental results are emphasized: The area around the robot is measured using an on-board scanning time-of-flight laser. The observations of the walls ar...

Slam Based on Quantities Invariant of the Robot’s Configuration

This paper presents a solution to the Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) problem in the stochastic map framework for a mobile robot navigating in an indoor environment. The approach is based on the concept of the relative map. The idea consists in introducing a map state, which only contains quantities invariant under translation and rotation. In this way the landmark estimation is de...

تحلیل حرکت جریانات دریائی در تصاویر حرارتی سطح آب دریا

Oceanographic images obtained from environmental satellites by a wide range of sensors allow characterizing natural phenomena through different physical measurements. For instance Sea Surface Temperature (SST) images, altimetry data and ocean color data can be used for characterizing currents and vortex structures in the ocean. The purpose of this thesis is to derive a relatively complete frame...
