Mobile robots that consist of a mobile platform with one or many manipulators mounted on it are of great interest in a number of applications. Combination of platform and manipulator causes robot operates in extended work space. The analysis of these systems includes kinematics redundancy that makes more complicated problem. However, it gives more feasibility to robotic systems because of the e...

in this paper, a new method was proposed for the navigation of a mobile robot in an unknown dynamic environment. the robot could detect only a limited radius of its surrounding with its sensors and it went on the shortest null space (sns) toward the goal. in the case of no obstacle, sns was a direct path from the robot to goal; however, in the presence of obstacles, sns was a space around the r...

With the continuous development of the industrialization process, the countries all over the world gradually appeared lack of agricultural labor force and aging phenomenon, which was especially prominent in developed countries. However the agricultural robot with high operating efficiency, high qualities of work will play an increasingly important role in future agricultural production. Robot n...

designing the self-balancing two-wheeled mobile robots and reducing undesired vibrations are of great importance. for this purpose, the majority of researches are focused on application of relatively complex control approaches without improving the robot structure. therefore, in this paper we introduce a new two-wheeled mobile robot which, despite its relative simple structure, fulfills the req...

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...

This paper, proposes a methodology to implement a suitable nonsingular terminal sliding mode controller associated with the output feedback control to achieve a successful trajectory tracking of a non-holonomic wheeled mobile robot in presence of longitudinal and lateral slip accompanied. This implementation offers a relatively faster and high precision tracking performance. We investigate this...

Solution to the safe and collision-free trajectory of the wheeled mobile robot in cluttered environments containing the static and/or dynamic obstacle has become a very popular and challenging research topic in the last decade. Notwithstanding of the amount of publications dealing with the different aspects of this field, the ongoing efforts to address the more effective and creative methods is...
