Abstract: | This paper presents a sensor-based real-time obstacle avoidance method for an autonomous omnidirectional mobile robot based on simultaneous control of translational and efficient rotational motion considering movable gaps and the footprint. Autonomous mobile service robots that have been developed in recent years have arms that work and execute tasks. Depending on the task using moving parts, the shape of the robot (i.e., the footprint) changes. In this study, to improve the safety and possibility of reaching a goal even through a narrow gap with unknown obstacles, a sensor-based real-time obstacle avoidance method with simultaneous control of translational and efficient rotational motion (without unnecessary rotational motion) based on the evaluation of movable gaps and the footprint is proposed. To take account of the anisotropy footprint of the robot, multiple-circle robot model is proposed. In this paper, a novel control method based on fuzzy set theory is presented. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, several simulations and experiments are carried out. |
