This paper investigates the synthesis of a non-linear spatial lookahead controller for path tracking of Ackerman-steered autonomous vehicles. Controller tuning is performed using stability results and optimization techniques. Controller performance is analyzed when the vehicle follows different paths at different speeds. Finally experiments have been conducted using the ROMEO 4R autonomous vehi...

My name is Evan Ackerman, and I write about robots for IEEE Spectrum . I’ve been writing a long, long time, which means that watched truly astonishing number of robot videos—tens thousands them, at least. And as part my job, shot edited fair share videos, too.

In the latest volume of Bruce Ackerman’s We the People, he sets out to demonstrate that the Constitution has been legitimately amended by “unconventional” means, or by mechanisms other than the Article V amendment process. In making this argument, Ackerman offers a rich constitutional history of the Founding period, the Reconstruction era, and the New Deal. He successfully demonstrates that unc...

Individual differences in skill acquisition are influenced by several architectural factors. According to Ackerman's theory, general intelligence, speed of proceduralization and psycho-motor speed influence different stages of skill acquisition. Ackerman tested this theory by correlating performance on an Air Traffic Controller (ATC) task with tests on specific abilities. The present study disc...

A simple formula for determining pre-diabetes (the very early stage of diabetes mellitus) was derived from the model of Ackerman et al. [Bull Math Biophys 1965; 27: s21-37] for very smoothly varying time course patterns of blood glucose level. The natural period of blood glucose level in a healthy subject calculated using the formula was in good agreement with the value obtained by computer work.
