This paper proposes a robust posture stabilization control method for wheeled mobile robots. To solve the robust posture stabilization, we introduce reference generation mode, reference tracking mode, and reference regulation mode. In reference generation mode, a kinematic time-invariant controller is used to generate the reference trajectory which starts from the initial posture of the actual robot to the desired posture. In reference tracking mode, a sliding mode position controller is employed in such a way that the actual robot can follow the reference trajectory in the desired forward or backward moving direction, even in the presence of the disturbances in the dynamics. In reference regulation mode, a sliding mode heading direction controller is used such that the actual robot can maintain the desired posture against the disturbances. In this way, robust posture stabilization can be achieved at almost all global regions.

This paper proposes a self tuning fuzzy inference method by the genetic algorithm in the fuzzy-sliding mode control for a robot. Using this method, the number of inference rules and the shape of membership functions are optimized without an expert in robotics. The fuzzy outputs of the consequent part are updated by the gradient descent method. And, it is guaranteed that he selected solution become the global optimal solution by optimizing the Akaikes information criterion expressing the quality of the inference rules. The trajectory tracking simulation and experiment of the polishing robot show that the optimal fuzzy inference rules are automatically selected by the genetic algorithm and the proposed fuzzy-sliding mode controller provides reliable tracking performance during the polishing process.

Robot soccer is a challenging research area in which multiple robots collaborate in adversarial environment to achieve specific objectives. We designed and built the robotic agents for robot soccer, especially MIROSOT. We have been developing the appropriate vision algorithm, algorithm for ball tracking and prediction, algorithms for collaboration between the robots in an uncertain dynamic environment. In this work we focus on the development of ball tracking and prediction algorithm using Kalman filter. Robustness and feasibility of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated by simulation.

Although the actual visual simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) algorithms provide highly accurate tracking and mapping, most algorithms are too heavy to run live on embedded devices. In addition, the maps they produce are often unsuitable for path planning. To mitigate these issues, we propose a completely closed-loop online dense RGB-D SLAM algorithm targeting autonomous indoor mobile robot navigation tasks. The proposed algorithm runs live on an NVIDIA Jetson board embedded on a two-wheel differential-drive robot. It exhibits lightweight three-dimensional mapping, room-scale consistency, accurate pose tracking, and robustness to moving objects. Further, we introduce a navigation strategy based on the proposed algorithm. Experimental results demonstrate the robustness of the proposed SLAM algorithm, its computational efficiency, and its benefits for on-the-fly navigation while mapping.

This paper presents a cooperative control method for multiple robots. This method is based on local sensors. The proposed method integrates all information obtained by local perception through a set of sensors and generates commands without logical conflicts in designing control logic. To control multiple robots effectively, a global control strategy is proposed. These methods are constructed by using AND/OR logic and transition firing sequences in Petri nets. To evaluate these methods, the object-searching task is introduced. This task is to search an object like a box by two robots and consists of two sub-tasks, i.e., a wall tracking task and a robot tracking task. Simulation results for the object-searching task and the wall tracking task are presented to show the effectiveness of the method.

Using the vision system, robotic tasks in unstructured environments can be accompished, which reduces greatly the cost and steup time for the robotic system to fit to he well-defined and structured working environments. This paper proposes a dynamic control scheme for robot manipulator with eye-in-hand camera configuration. To perfom the tasks defined in the image plane, the camera motion Jacobian (image Jacobian) matrix is used to transform the camera motion to the objection position change. In addition, the dynamic learning controller is designed to improve the tracking performance of robotic system. the proposed control scheme is implemented for tasks of tracking moving objects and shown to outperform the conventional visual servo system in convergence and robustness to parameter uncertainty, disturbances, low sampling rate, etc.

This paper presents the development of a full order sliding mode controller for tracking problem of a class of uncertain dynamical system, in particular, the direct drive robot manipulators. By treating the arm as an uncertain system represented by its nominal and bounded parametric uncertainties, a new robust fullorder sliding mode tracking controller is derived such that the actual trajectory tracks the desired trajectory as closely as possible despite the non-linearities and input couplings present in the system. A proportional-integral sliding surface is chosen to ensure the stability of overall dynamics during the entire period i.e. the reaching phase and the sliding phase. Application to a three DOF direct drive robot manipulator is considered.

In this paper, we present a wavelet neural network (WNN) approach to the solution of the path tracking problem for mobile robots that possess complexity, nonlinearity and noise. First, we discuss a WNN based control system where the control signals are directly obtained by minimizing the difference between the reference track and the pose of a mobile robot. This compact network structure is helpful to determine the number of hidden nodes and the initial value of weights. Then, the data with various noises provided by odometric and external sensors are here fused together by means of an Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) approach for the pose estimation problem of mobile robots. This control process is a dynamic on-line process that uses the wavelet neural network trained via the gradient-descent method with estimates from EKF. Finally, we verify the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed control system through simulations.

The human-following is one of the significant procedure in human-friendly navigation of mobile robots. There are many approaches of human-following technology. Many approaches have adopted various multiple sensors such as vision system and Laser Range Finder (LRF). In this paper, we propose detection and tracking approaches for human legs by the use of a single LRF. We extract four simple attributes of human legs. To define the boundary of extracted attributes mathematically, we used a Support Vector Data Description (SVDD) scheme. We establish an efficient leg-tracking scheme by exploiting a human walking model to achieve robust tracking under occlusions. The proposed approaches were successfully verified through various experiments.
