Modelling and control of wheeled mobile robots
Sypták, Michal ; Šembera, Jaroslav (referee) ; Šolc, František (advisor)
Control of wheeled chassis does not constitute a problem in the area of mobile robotic solely. Rather, it can be encountered in transportation, both at close range and long range. In this thesis, mobile chassis are characterized as kinematic models. These models prove to be erroneous at high speed, whereas they sufficiently accurately represent the real robotic system in situations when slow, autonomous motion of the robot is desired. In comparison with dynamic models, both their project and implementation are simpler, too. The first part of this thesis is focused on a basic description of the motion of a robot in-plane. In the next part, five, most frequently used wheels in robotics are described and characterized - standard fixed wheels, standard steering wheels, castor wheels, multidirectional wheels and omnidirectional wheels. The motion conditions are deduced from each type of wheel. There are two methods of projecting the mobile robot model – full modelling and generic modelling. Based on these two methods, six models of mobile robots with different motion properties are proposed and described. The last and most extensive part of this thesis deals with simulator of robot motion created in Matlab/Simulink. It includes users guide which allows the configuration of random chassis and various trajectories of motion. In this way, it is possible to visually evaluace and classify the the different types of robots. The core of this thesis is largely connected with the field of odometry – i.e. transformation output from speed sensor and turning of wheels sensor into the robot position in the system of coordinates that defines its working space. Simulator as complex only model motion of mobile robots in plain. Its inside structure included algoritms, that have been used in praxis for control real mobile robots. In this way created Simulator models the motion of mobile robots in-plain only. However, its inside structure is based on algorithms, that could be used for control of real mobile robots in real-life working.
