Aspects Regarding Fly Control of Quadcopter
1-5.Megtekintések száma:199Quadcopter is one of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) which has two pairs of identical fixed pitched rotor propellers. It can fly autonomously based on pre-programmed flight or manually controlled by a remote, and every movement achieved by varying the speed of each rotor independently. The orientation of quadcopter axes relative to a reference line and its direction of motion are known as attitude. Fly control factors are affected by attitude determination which can be calculated from 3 possible angles using combined measurement. Gyroscope and accelerometer are primary sensors to control quadcopter attitude, but magnetometer sensor and GPS also used to enhance the stability during flight. This paper will focus on details of function and mathematical formula of every factor regarding fly control and comparative data of 2 types of orientation sensor used in this system.

Home Compatible Omnidirectional Hovercraft Robot
1-7.Megtekintések száma:115As robots slowly integrate into home environments, synthesis of navigation, maneuverability and human acceptance is inevitable. This paper introduces a holonomic hovercraft design and the associated omnidirectional controlling algorithm. Hovercraft capabilities were investigated and discussed though design recommendations in relation to a robot compatible environment. The main aim of the design was to achieve better maneuverability, enhanced capabilities of overcoming obstacles, and the elimination of the drift phenomena that is a characteristic of conventional underactuated hovercraft designs, where rear rotor drive exerts thrust in one direction. Due to own inertia and the low friction of the air cushion, the hovercraft slips out in the original direction. Beyond solving this drift problem, another key feature of our design is the capability to be controlled in a global reference frame regardless of its orientation and desired trajectory with the help of a holonomic thruster drive. Orientation control is also implemented by turning the base of the thrusters. The design was implemented on a remote controlled hovercraft robot and proved to have a superior maneuverability over conventional hovercraft designs, thus our research greatly contributes to future human-robot cooperation in the living environment.

Navigation of Differential Drive Mobile Robot on Predefined, Software Designed Path
1-5.Megtekintések száma:162This paper will be presenting the process of mobile robot movement controlling, from the task of collecting sensor data until the problem of controlling data to the servo motor controllers. In details, the first part will show the mechanism of converting CAD data to routes, and the processing of the navigation data read from the sensors and calculated from former controlling commands. The second part will explain the processing of navigation data, the applying of the actual robot position and orientation on the predefined virtual path and the production of the controller's input variables. The Fuzzy controller and the rule base will be introduced in the third part.
