Control Implementation

This paper presents the virtual environment implementation for simulation and design conception of supervision and control systems for mobile robots, that are capable to operate and adapt in different environments and conditions. The purpose of this virtual system is to facilitate the development of embedded architecture systems, emphasizing the implementation of tools that allow the simulation of the kinematic conditions, dynamic and control, with monitoring in real time of all important system points. For this, an open control architecture is proposed, integrating the two main techniques of robotic control implementation in the hardware level: systems microprocessors and reconfigurable hardware devices. The implemented simulator system is composed of a trajectory generating module, a kinematic and dynamic simulator module, and an analysis module of results and errors. All the kinematic and dynamic results obtained during the simulation can be evaluated and visualized in graphs and table formats in the results analysis module, allowing the improvement of the system, minimizing the errors with the necessary adjustments and optimization. For controller implementation in the embedded system, it uses the rapid prototyping which is the technology that allows in set, with the virtual simulation environment, the development of a controller project for mobile robots. The validation and tests had been accomplished with nonholonomic mobile robot models with differential transmission.

According to the shortcomings of large volume and high cost about the plate recognition system, an embedded plate recognition system is developed based on the ARM11 processor at lower costs. Taking the embedded Linux system as the software development platform, the system uses graphical user interface to operate and control the machine. Using CMOS camera system as image acquisition device, the system adopts HSV algorithm to realize the image classification on the platform of the embedded plate recognition system. The experimental results show that the embedded system runs stably, can realize the plate classification by color, and has the advantages of small size, low power consumption, convenience for using and so on. The embedded system provides a new thought for plate recognition.

Aquaculture is major occupation for the humans living at coastal areas. The fresh water cultivation of the certain species is prominent in tropical and sub-tropical climates. Here the proposed work shows the relation-ship between the growth of the certain species of marine habitats and the factors affecting their growth with respect to the medium of their living. Advancement of embedded systems in aquaculture leads to new innovations of monitoring and controlling the various parameters. Here the embedded system based application is used, through which the monitoring and controlling of the light is done with the help of LabVIEW based PI controller as well as Fuzzy controller for the effective and healthy growth of the marine habitat. The Designed controllers are energy efficient based controller for controlling the Light Source (LS) via appropriate lighting control levels. The controlling and managing of the system is based on the present light intensity with the help of virtual controller. The proposed work involves the designing and implementation of PI controller and the fuzzy controller for the real time setup to monitor and control the process for optimal and feasible solution.

<p>Embedded systems that monitor and control safety and mission critical system are communicated with by a HOST located at a remote location through Internet. Such kind of embedded systems are developed to be dynamically evolvable with respect to syntax, semantics, online testing and communication subsystems. All these systems are to be dynamically evolvable and the components needed for evolution are also to be added into the embedded system. Architectural  models describe  various components using which dynamically evolvable sub-systems are realised through implementation by using specific and related technologies. Implementation system describe the platform, code units and the interlacing of various processes/tasks to the elementary level of details. WEB services place an excellent platform for implementing dynamically evolvable  systems due to the use of open standards.</p><p> </p><p>This paper presents an implementation system that is related to dynamically evolvable communication and other sub-systems using web services technologies.</p>

The development of autonomous mobile robots is continuously gaining importance particularly in the military for surveillance as well as in industry for inspection and material handling tasks. Another emerging market with enormous potential is mobile robots for entertainment. A fundamental requirement for autonomous mobile robots in most of its applications is the ability to navigate from a point of origin to a given goal. The mobile robot must be able to generate a collision-free path that connects the point of origin and the given goal. Some of the key algorithms for mobile robot navigation will be discussed in this article.

The difficulties of transporting heavy mobile robots limit robotic experiments in agriculture. Virtual reality however, offers an alternative to conduct experiments in agriculture. This paper presents an application of virtual reality in a robot navigational experiment using SolidWorks and simulated into MATLAB. Trajectories were initiated using Probabilistic Roadmap and compared based on travel time, distance and tracking error, and the efficiency was calculated. The simulation results showed that the proposed method was able to conduct the navigational experiment inside the virtual environment. U-turn trajectory was chosen as the best trajectory for crop inspection with 82.7% efficiency.
