This paper describes the theory and an experiment of a velocity potential approach to path planning and avoiding moving obstacles for an autonomous mobile robot by use of the Laplace potential. This new navigation function for path planning is feasible for guiding a mobile robot avoiding arbitrarily moving obstacles and reaching the goal in real time. The essential feature of the navigation function comes from the introduction of fluid flow dynamics into the path planning. The experiment is conducted to verify the effectiveness of the navigation function for obstacle avoidance in a real world. Two examples of the experiment are presented; first, the avoidance of a moving obstacle in parallel line-bounded space, and second, the avoidance of one moving obstacle and another standing obstacle. The robot can reach the goal after successfully avoiding the obstacles in these cases. 相似文献

In many service applications, mobile robots need to share their work areas with obstacles. Avoiding moving obstacles with unpredictable direction changes, such as humans, is more challenging than avoiding moving obstacles whose motion can be predicted. Precise information on the future moving directions of humans is unobtainable for use in navigation algorithms. Furthermore, humans should be able to pursue their activities unhindered and without worrying about the robots around them. An enhanced virtual force field-based mobile robot navigation algorithm (termed EVFF) is presented for avoiding moving obstacles with unpredictable direction changes. This algorithm may be used with both holonomic and nonholonomic robots. It incorporates improved virtual force functions and an improved method for selecting the sense of the detour force to better avoid moving obstacles. For several challenging obstacle configurations, the EVFF algorithm is compared with five state-of-the-art navigation algorithms for moving obstacles. The navigation system with the new algorithm generated collision-free paths consistently. Methods for solving local minima conditions are proposed. Experimental results are also presented to further verify the avoidance performance of this algorithm. 相似文献

Different from ordinary mobile robots used in a well-structured industrial workspace, a guide mobile robot for the visually impaired should be designed in consideration of multiple moving obstacles of various types and with different speeds while it adaptively maintains a certain distance from the user. Here, the moving obstacles mostly refer to pedestrians in intentional motions. Thus, navigation of the guide robot can be facilitated if the intention of each obstacle detected can be known in advance.In the paper, we propose to use a fuzzy grid-type local map in order to infer the intention of a moving obstacle. And, then, we determine the motion control of the robot by adopting a multiobjective decision making method in order to take into consideration various requirements including goal-seeking, multiple obstacle avoidance and maintenance of a certain distance from the user. To show the effectiveness of the proposed method, some experimental results are provided. 相似文献

This article presents a design and experimental study of navigation integration of an intelligent mobile robot in dynamic environments. The proposed integration architecture is based on the virtual‐force concept, by which each navigation resource is assumed to exert a virtual force on the robot. The resultant force determines how the robot will move. Reactive behavior and proactive planning can both be handled in a simple and uniform manner using the proposed integration method. A real‐time motion predictor is employed to enable the mobile robot to deal in advance with moving obstacles. A grid map is maintained using on‐line sensory data for global path planning, and a bidirectional algorithm is proposed for planning the shortest path for the robot by using updated grid‐map information. Therefore, the mobile robot has the capacity to both learn and adapt to variations. To implement the whole navigation system efficiently, a blackboard model is used to coordinate the computation on board the vehicle. Simulation and experimental results are presented to verify the proposed design and demonstrate smooth navigation behavior of the intelligent mobile robot in dynamic environments. ©1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

A real-time limit-cycle navigation method for fast mobile robots and its application to robot soccer
《Robotics and Autonomous Systems》2003,42(1):17-30
A mobile robot should be designed to navigate with collision avoidance capability in the real world, flexibly coping with the changing environment. In this paper, a novel limit-cycle navigation method is proposed for a fast mobile robot using the limit-cycle characteristics of a 2nd-order nonlinear function. It can be applied to the robot operating in a dynamically changing environment, such as in a robot soccer system. By adjusting the radius of the motion circle and the direction of obstacle avoidance, the navigation method proposed enables a robot to maneuver smoothly towards any desired destination. Simulations and real experiments using a robot soccer system demonstrate the merits and practical applicability of the proposed method. 相似文献

The work presented in this paper deals with the problem of navigating a mobile robot either in an unknown indoor environment or in a partially known one. A navigation method based on the combination of elementary behaviors has been developed for an unknown environment. Most of these behaviors are achieved by means of fuzzy inference systems. The proposed navigator combines two types of obstacle avoidance behaviors, one for the convex obstacles and one for the concave ones. In the case of a partially known environment, a hybrid method is used to exploit the advantages of global and local navigation strategies. The coordination of these strategies is based on a fuzzy inference system that involves an on-line comparison between the real scene and a memorized one. Both methods have been implemented on the miniature mobile robot Khepera® which is equipped with rough sensors. The good results obtained illustrate the robustness of a fuzzy logic approach with regard to sensor imperfections. 相似文献

This paper introduces a navigation method for a teleoperated mobile agent (or robot) moving in an unstructured environment that includes unknown obstacles and uneven terrain, based on a guided-navigation algorithm (GNA) and a rollover-prevention algorithm (RPA). Although the mobile agent is primarily driven by an operator at a remote site, it reacts autonomously for avoiding collision with obstacles and for preventing rollover when it suspects/detects possible collision or rollover. The autonomous reactive motion is normally unexpected, thus there exists the inconsistency between the intended motion and the controlled motion of the agent from the operator. A force-reflection technique utilizing a force-feedback joystick is developed to manipulate this inconsistency. To verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed navigation method, experiments with the Robot for Hazardous Application-Double Tracks (ROBHAZ-DT) (actual mobile agent) are successfully carried out. 相似文献

A new fuzzy-based potential field method is presented in this paper for autonomous mobile robot motion planning with dynamic
environments including static or moving target and obstacles. Two fuzzy Mamdani and TSK models have been used to develop the
total attractive and repulsive forces acting on the mobile robot. The attractive and repulsive forces were estimated using
four inputs representing the relative position and velocity between the target and the robot in the x and y directions, in one hand, and between the obstacle and the robot, on the other hand. The proposed fuzzy potential field motion
planning was investigated based on several conducted MATLAB simulation scenarios for robot motion planning within realistic
dynamic environments. As it was noticed from these simulations that the proposed approach was able to provide the robot with
collision-free path to softly land on the moving target and solve the local minimum problem within any stationary or dynamic
environment compared to other potential field-based approaches. 相似文献

This paper presents a stochastic map building method for mobile robot using a 2-D laser range finder. Unlike other methods that are based on a set of geometric primitives, the presented method builds a map with a set of obstacle regions. In building a map of the environment, the presented algorithm represents the obstacles with a number of stochastic obstacle regions, each of which is characterized by its own stochastic parameters such as mean and covariance. Whereas the geometric primitives based map sometimes does not fit well to sensor data, the presented method reliably represents various types of obstacles including those of irregular walls and sets of tiny objects. Their shapes and features are easily extracted from the stochastic parameters of their obstacle regions, and are used to develop reliable navigation and obstacle avoidance algorithms. The algorithm updates the world map in real time by detecting the changes of each obstacle region. Consequently, it is adequate for modeling the quasi-static environment, which includes occasional changes in positions of the obstacles rather than constant dynamic moves of the obstacles. The presented map building method has successfully been implemented and tested on the ARES-II mobile robot system equipped with a LADAR 2D-laser range finder. 相似文献

Most of navigation techniques with obstacle avoidance do not consider the robot orientation at the target position. These techniques deal with the robot position only and are independent of its orientation and velocity. To solve these problems this paper proposes a novel univector field method for fast mobile robot navigation which introduces a normalized two dimensional vector field. The method provides fast moving robots with the desired posture at the target position and obstacle avoidance. To obtain the sub-optimal vector field, a function approximator is used and trained by evolutionary programming. Two kinds of vector fields are trained, one for the final posture acquisition and the other for obstacle avoidance. Computer simulations and real experiments are carried out for a fast moving mobile robot to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme. 相似文献

This paper deals with a navigation algorithm for swarm robot systems in which multiple mobile robots work together. The motion
of each mobile robot is modeled in such a way to have more inputs than the number of outputs. The null-space projection method
of this model is employed to resolve the motion of the swarm robot system while avoiding obstacles. The feasibility of the
proposed navigation algorithm is verified through a simulation study using several swarm robot models. 相似文献

This paper presents a novel reactive collision avoidance method for mobile robots moving in dense and cluttered environments. The proposed method, entitled Tangential Gap flow (TGF), simplifies the navigation problem using a divide and conquer strategy inspired by the well-known Nearness-Diagram Navigation (ND) techniques. At each control cycle, the TGF extracts free openings surrounding the robot and identifies the suitable heading which makes the best progress towards the goal. This heading is then adjusted to avoid the risk of collision with nearby obstacles based on two concepts namely, tangential and gap flow navigation. The tangential navigation steers the robot parallel to the boundary of the closest obstacle while still emphasizing the progress towards the goal. The gap flow navigation safely and smoothly drives the robot towards the free area in between obstacles that lead to the target. The resultant trajectory is faster, shorter and less-oscillatory when compared to the ND methods. Furthermore, identifying the avoidance maneuver is extended to consider all nearby obstacle points and generate an avoidance rule applicable for all obstacle configurations. Consequently, a smoother yet much more stable behavior is achieved. The stability of the motion controller, that guides the robot towards the desired goal, is proved in the Lyapunov sense. Experimental results including a performance evaluation in very dense and complex environments demonstrate the power of the proposed approach. Additionally, a discussion and comparison with existing Nearness-Diagram Navigation variants is presented. 相似文献

Most conventional motion planning algorithms that are based on the model of the environment cannot perform well when dealing with the navigation problem for real-world mobile robots where the environment is unknown and can change dynamically. In this paper, a layered goal-oriented motion planning strategy using fuzzy logic is developed for a mobile robot navigating in an unknown environment. The information about the global goal and the long-range sensory data are used by the first layer of the planner to produce an intermediate goal, referred to as the way-point, that gives a favorable direction in terms of seeking the goal within the detected area. The second layer of the planner takes this way-point as a subgoal and, using short-range sensory data, guides the robot to reach the subgoal while avoiding collisions. The resulting path, connecting an initial point to a goal position, is similar to the path produced by the visibility graph motion planning method, but in this approach there is no assumption about the environment. Due to its simplicity and capability for real-time implementation, fuzzy logic has been used for the proposed motion planning strategy. The resulting navigation system is implemented on a real mobile robot, Koala, and tested in various environments. Experimental results are presented which demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed fuzzy navigation system. 相似文献
