Abstract:

Autonomous vehicles have many application possibilities within many different fields like rescue missions, exploring foreign environments or unmanned vehicles etc. For such system to navigate in a safe manner, high requirements of reliability and security must be fulfilled. This master's thesis explores the possibility to use the machine learning algorithm convolutional network on a robotic platform for autonomous path following. The only input to predict the steering signal is a monochromatic image taken by a camera mounted on the robotic car pointing in the steering direction. The convolutio

Abstract:

<p>This report presents two optimization problems, where three cost-functions are suggested for each. The goal for the first optimization problem is to find a time variant look-ahead distance which improves the performance of the vessel in terms of the cross-track error, relative to constant look-ahead distances. The second optimization problem is an extension of the first, where a time variant surge velocity reference is also calculated. This results in smaller cross-track errors, at the cost of increased calculation time. It is assumed that the path and the desired surge velocity on the path

Abstract:

This research proposes to adapt the concept of trajectory shaping guidance law on a quadrotor to follow several different predefined, compact paths. Keeping the real world nonlinearities, sensor and process noise in mind, the technique is simulated using MATLAB-Simulink. This guidance concept is implemented on a real, custom built quadrotor for which a new testing platform was developed from the ground up. Also, the results obtained from the trajectory shaping concept are compared to the performance characteristics of another path following concept called differential flatness. In addition to

Abstract:

Path following and lateral stability are crucial issues for autonomous vehicles. Moreover, these problems increase in complexity when handling heavy-duty vehicles due to their poor manoeuvrability, large sizes and mass variation. In addition, uncertainties on mass may have the potential to significantly decrease the performance of the system, even to the point of destabilising it. These parametric variations must be taken into account during the design of the controller. However, robust control techniques usually require offline adjustment of auxiliary tuning parameters, which is not practical

The subject area of multiobjective optimisation deals with the investigation of optimisation problems that possess more than one objective function. Usually, there does not exist a single solution that optimises all functions simultaneously, quite the contrary, in general the set of so-called efficient points, these are solutions to multiobjective optimisation problems, is large. Since it is important for the decision maker to obtain as much information as possible about this set, our research objective is to determine a well-defined and meaningful approximation of the solution set for nonline

Studies of carbon's evolutionary path have been conducted via millimeter and submillimeter observations of circumstellar envelopes (CSEs), planetary nebulae (PNe), molecular clouds and comets. The 12C/13C isotope ratio was measured in Galactic molecular clouds using the CN isotopologs. A gradient of 12CN/13CN was determined to be 12C/13C = 6.01 DGC +12.28, where DGC is distance from the Galactic center. The results of CN are in agreement with those of CO and H2CO indicating a true ratio not influenced by fractionation effects or isotope-selective photodissociation. The 12C/13C isotope rati

Abstract:

Quadrotors, being more agile than fixed-wing vehicles, are the ideal candidates for autonomous missions in small, compact spaces. The immense challenge to navigate such environments is fulfilled by the concept of path following. Path following is the method of tracking/tracing a fixed, pre-defined path with minimum position error while exerting the lowest possible control effort. In this work, the missile guidance technique of pure pursuit is adopted and modified for a 3D quadrotor model to follow fixed, compact trajectories. A specialized hardware testing platform is developed to test this al

Abstract:

To stay competitive internationally, the Swedish forestry sector must increase its productivity by 2 to 3% annually. There are a variety of ways in which productivity can be increased. One option is to develop remote-controlled or unmanned machines, thus reducing the need for operator intervention. Another option—and one that could be achieved sooner than full automation—would be to make some functions semi-automatic. Semi-automatic operation of the knuckle boom and felling head in particular would create “mini-breaks” for the operators, thereby reducing mental and physiological stress.

The use of marine vessels, especially underwater vehicles, is rapidly increasing. Autonomous marine vehicles are a huge focus area within the oil and gas industry, and can also be utilized for scientific, environmental and military use. There are still many challenges related to making such marine vessels autonomous. A basic task of an autonomous marine vessel is to follow a general path in the presence of unknown ocean currents. This is the key challenge addressed in this thesis.In this thesis, two theorems that ensure path following given that certain assumptionsare satisfied are presented.

Esta dissertação propõe um sistema de apoio à navegação baseado em visão monocular passível de ser instalado em veículos aéreos não tripulados de pequena e média dimensão, concebidos para realizar missões em ambiente florestal (e.g., busca e salvamento). A navegação autónoma em ambiente florestal apresenta um conjunto de desafios que vão desde a complexidade dos obstáculos presentes (e.g., árvores) até ao ruído provocado pela vegetação nos sinais de radiofrequência tipi camente usados para controlo remoto ou auto-localização (GPS). Neste contexto, o trabalho proposto nesta dissertação a

Abstract:

碩士<br>大葉大學<br>電機工程學系<br>98<br>The aim of this study is to develop an versatile mobile robot, addition on mobile robot sensory or other tools, causes the monotonous tool to become an versatile mobile robot. Form accurate dense control, the system can send orders sensor data to control vehicle motion, mobile robot can rest on us to plan motion along a route. Controls the mobile robot by three reflection sensor (CNY 70) element to plan motion along a route, mobile robot receive data by three reflection sensor, drive left and right motor condition to achieve the direction the control.
