This paper proposes a new cooperative transportation control algorithm in consideration of not only the internal force but the external force applied to “Mobile Robot for a Wheel (MRWheel)”. First, we describe the merits and demerits of the model-based external force compensation method proposed in our previous study and explain the necessity of this new control algorithm. Secondly, we explain this...
This article describes the concept of a novel car transportation system including two mobile robots with a lift mechanism for single wheel. The system lifts only two drive wheels of a front-wheel-drive vehicle or a rear-wheel-drive vehicle, and transports them. However, the system has nonholonomic constraints because all wheels of a vehicle are not lifted by the system. This article also describes...
This paper proposes a new car transportation system, iCART II (intelligent Cooperative Autonomous Robot Transporters - type II), based on “a-robot-for-a-wheel” concept. A prototype system, MRWheel (a Mobile Robot for a Wheel), is designed and downsized less than the half of the conventional robot used in iCART (intelligent Cooperative Autonomous Robot Transporters). In general, it is very difficult...
