Inertially stabilized platforms using dual-axis gyros: sensitivity analysis to unmodeled motion and an extension to visual tracking

چکیده
Inertially stabilized platforms are subject of interest for different application, e.g. telecommunications, robotics and military systems. In this paper the objective is to maintain the line-of-sight constant despite the motion of a host vehicle. The platform stabilization problem is addressed using dual-axis gyroscopic sensors, where certain vehicle dynamic constraints are considered. Sensor positioning and sensitivity analysis to unmodeled motion are discussed. An extension to the visual tracking problem is presented using a class of algorithms for fast digital image registration.

VISCOUS NUTATION DAMPER, MODELING AND ANALYSIS
In some aerospace vehicles, the tracking sensors which act in a tracking loop as stabilizer are mounted on a two degree of freedom gyro. The gyro must align its rotor axis with the line of sight in order to remove tracking errors. The tracking precision and sensitivity are functions of the gyros performance. One of the main factors in reducing the precision and producing instabilities is nutati...

متن کاملRobust Sliding Mode Controller for Trajectory Tracking and Attitude Control of a Nonholonomic Spherical Mobile Robot
Based on dynamic modeling, robust trajectory tracking control of attitude and position of a spherical mobile robot is proposed. In this paper, the spherical robot is composed of a spherical shell and three independent rotors which act as the inner driver mechanism. Owing to rolling without slipping assumption, the robot is subjected to two nonholonomic constraints. The state space representatio...
