  3. 2. MPC based Caster Wheel Aware Motion Planning for Differential Drive Robots

    University essay from KTH/Mekatronik

    Author : Jon Arrizabalaga Aguirregomezcorta; [2020]
    Keywords : Mobile robots; differential drive; caster wheels; motion planning; MPC; Mobila robotar; differentiell drivning; hjul; rörelseplanering; MPC;

    Abstract : The inherited rotation in a caster wheel allows movement in any direction, but pays at the expense of reaction torques. When implemented in a mobile robot, these forces have a negative impact in its performance. One approach is to restrict rotations on the spot by attaching a filter to the output of the motion planner. READ MORE

  6. 5. Weda pool cleaner Concept P100

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.)

    Author : Hared Abukar; Firas Al Saati; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Syftet med detta examensarbete var att ta fram en ny drivlina för Wedas nuvarande robot poolrengörare W50. I nuläget är pumpen integrerad i drivlinan som består endast av en motor som driver både hjul och pump. Detta orsakar ett kritiskt problem som påverkar städning vid lutningar i poolen då roboten glider ner för lutningen. READ MORE
