This paper investigates the stabilization and trajectory tracking problem of wheeled mobile robot with a ceiling-mounted camera in complex environment. First, an adaptive visual servoing controller is proposed based on the uncalibrated kinematic model due to the complex operation environment. Then, an adaptive controller is derived to provide a solution of uncertain dynamic control for a wheeled mobile robot subject to parametric uncertainties. Furthermore, the proposed controllers can be applied to a more general situation where the parallelism requirement between the image plane and operation plane is no more needed. The overparameterization of regressor matrices is avoided by exploring the structure of the camera-robot system, and thus, the computational complexity of the controller can be simplified. The Lyapunov method is employed to testify the stability of a closed-loop system. Finally, simulation results are presented to demonstrate the performance of the suggested control.

Uncalibrated Visual Servoing

This paper presents an uncalibrated visual servoing scheme for underwater vehicle manipulator systems (UVMSs) with an eye-in-hand camera under uncertainties. These uncertainties contain vision sensor parameters, UVMS kinematics and feature position information. At first, a linear separation approach is addressed to collect these uncertainties into vectors, and this approach can also be utilized in other free-floating based manipulator systems. Secondly, a novel nonlinear adaptive controller is proposed to achieve image error convergence by estimating these vectors, the gradient projection method is utilized to optimize the restoring moments. Thirdly, a high order disturbance observer is addressed to deal with time-varying disturbances, and the convergence of the image errors is proved under the Lyapunov theory. Finally, in order to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method, numerical simulations based on a 9 degrees of freedom (DOFs) UVMS with an eye-in-hand camera are conducted. In simulations, the UVMS is expected to track a circle trajectory on the image plane, meanwhile, time-varying disturbances are exerted on the system. The proposed scheme can achieve accurate and smooth tracking results during simulations.

Motion control involving DC motors requires a closed-loop system with a suitable compensator if tracking performance with high precision is desired. In the case where structural model errors of the motors are more dominating than the effects from noise disturbances, accurate system modelling will be a considerable aid in synthesizing the compensator. The focus of this paper is on enhancing the tracking performance of a wheeled mobile robot (WMR), which is driven by two DC motors that are subject to model parametric uncertainties and uncertain deadzones. For the system at hand, the uncertain nonlinear perturbations are greatly induced by the time-varying power supply, followed by behaviour of motion and speed. In this work, the system is firstly modelled, where correlations between the model parameters and different input datasets as well as voltage supply are obtained via polynomial regressions. A robust H ∞ -fuzzy logic approach is then proposed to treat the issues due to the aforementioned perturbations. Via the proposed strategy, the H ∞ controller and the fuzzy logic (FL) compensator work in tandem to ensure the control law is robust against the model uncertainties. The proposed technique was validated via several real-time experiments, which showed that the speed and path tracking performance can be considerably enhanced when compared with the results via the H ∞ controller alone, and the H ∞ with the FL compensator, but without the presence of the robust control law.

In this paper, the trajectory tracking problem is investigated for a nonholonomic wheeled mobile robot with parameter uncertainties and external disturbances. In this strategy, combining the kinematic model with the dynamic model, the actuator voltage is employed as the control input, and the uncertainties are approximated by a fuzzy logic system. An auxiliary velocity controller is integrated with an adaptive fuzzy integral terminal sliding mode controller, and a robust controller is employed to compensate for the lumped errors. It is proved that all the signals in the closed system are bounded and the auxiliary velocity tracking errors can converge to a small neighborhood of the origin in finite time. As a result, the tracking position errors converge asymptotically to zeros with faster response than other existing controllers. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed strategy.

Simulation Results

SUMMARYThis paper presents an adaptive trajectory tracking controller for a non-holonomic wheeled mobile robot (WMR) in the presence of parametric uncertainty in the kinematic and dynamic models of the WMR and actuator dynamics. The adaptive non-linear control law is designed based on input–output feedback linearization technique to get asymptotically exact cancellation for the uncertainty in the given system parameters. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed controller, a non-adaptive controller is compared with the adaptive controller via computer simulation results. The results show satisfactory trajectory tracking performance by virtue of SPR-Lyapunov design approach. In order to verify the simulation results, a set of experiments have been carried out on a commercial mobile robot. The experimental results also show the effectiveness of the proposed controller.

Tracking Strategy

For a four wheeled mobile robot a trajectory tracking concept is developed based on its kinematics. A trajectory is a time–indexed path in the plane consisting of position and orientation. The mobile robot is modeled as a non holonomic system subject to pure rolling, no slip constraints. To facilitate the controller design the kinematic equation can be converted into chained form using some change of co-ordinates. From the kinematic model of the robot a backstepping based tracking controller is derived. Simulation results demonstrate such trajectory tracking strategy for the kinematics indeed gives rise to an effective methodology to follow the desired trajectory asymptotically.
