A coverage motion planning (CMP) is a kind of coverage path planning, which requires the robot path to fill every grid of the workspace. It is an essential issue in plenty of robotic applications. Safety aware collision-free coverage motion planning of an autonomous vehicle is one of the major challenges in intelligent vehicle systems. Many studies have been focused on the obstacle avoidance to prevent...
Multi-robot cooperation receives increasing attention. Collaboration among the robots can improve the efficiency and effectiveness for some complex tasks. Target searching in completely unknown environments is a challenging topic for multi-robot cooperation. In this paper, a novel potential field-based particle swarm optimization (PPSO) approach is proposed for a team of mobile robots to cooperatively...
This paper proposes an efficient neural network (NN) controller for the tracking control of an autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV) subject to unknown vehicle dynamics and significant uncertainties. The controller is first designed based on the error dynamics by using backstepping technique. Then, the unknown dynamics and uncertainties of the vehicle are handled by introducing a NN with single-layer...
A solution by hybrid algorithms is proposed in this paper for real-time map building and navigation for multiple goals purpose. In real world applications, an intelligent mobile vehicle is required to reach multiple goals with a shortest path that, in this paper, is capable of being implemented in TSP (Traveling Salesman Problem) by a Genetic Algorithm (GA) with minimized overall distance. A D∗-Lite-based...
This paper describes a design of demand management system for household heating & cooling to reduce the energy cost and shift the peak load of power system based on real-time electricity pricing system and ZigBee monitoring network. The operating characteristics of electrical appliances and user experience are also considered. The electrical radiator is taken as an example to describe the formulation...
