Introduction to mobile robotics -- Motion modeling for mobile robots -- Control of wheeled mobile systems -- Path planning -- Sensors used in mobile systems -- Nondeterministic events in mobile systems -- Autonomous guided vehicles -- Project examples for laboratory practice.
Wheeled mobile robots are coming into our homes in the form of robotic floor cleaners and lawn mowers, automatic guided vehicles can be found inside many industrial facilities, prototype self- driving cars already drive in the normal traffic, and in the near future many new applications of autonomous wheeled mobile robots are expected to appear, even in some unforeseen ways.
Wheeled mobile robotics covers all the essential knowledge and algorithms that are required in order to achieve autonomous capabilities of wheeled mobile robots. It includes topics from mathematical modeling of motion, sensors and measurements, control algorithms, path planning, probabilistic sensor data fusion, and localization using state estimation filters. The theory is supported with examples that have solutions and excerpts of matlab code listings in order to make it simple for the reader to try, evaluate, and modify the algorithms. Furthermore, at the end of the book, some interesting practical projects are depicted, which can serve for laboratory practice or to consolidate the theory learned.
The book addresses essential problems in wheeled mobile robotics and presents to the reader various approaches that can be used to tackle them. It can serve both as a textbook for engineering students in mobile robotics related courses and a reference book for professionals in the field.
