Intelligent autonomous vehicles have received a great degree of attention in recent years. Although the technology required for these vehicles is relatively advanced, the challenge is firstly to ensure that drivers can understand the capabilities and limitations of such systems and secondly to design a system that can handle the interaction between the driver and the automated intelligent system....
This paper deals with the improvement of autonomous underwater robot propulsion systems. These need upgrades to enhance robots capabilities demanded by complex tasks, such as marine current turbine maintenance. We propose a Radial design for the concept of Reconfigurable Magnetic Coupling Thruster (R-RMCT). This design is based on the usage of a radial magnetic coupling as the core of a magnetic joint...
This paper presents an evaluation method for assessing different Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) propulsion systems (or topologies). This evaluation is based on solid/fluid dynamics simulation and uses a model-based control (feedback linearisation) to achieve the robotic mission assigned to the AUV. The objective of this work is to provide an evaluation relevant enough to be used for optimisation...
The design of a robotic vehicle of Autonomous Mobility Laboratory (LMA) at UNICAMP is developed in-vehicle platform FIAT-PUNTO. In addition to a set of sensors, actuators, mechanism and components (hardware and software), new technologies should be developed to support the Automation, Control, Perception, Localization and Navigation. The purposes of this work is to present a non-linear vehicle model...
