Control of a car-like mobile robot for parking problem

Abstract

Deals with the parking problem of a car-like mobile robot. The parking problem corresponds to the point-stabilization problem of nonholonomic systems. We propose a simple and efficient algorithm for the problem with stability analysis. Using this algorithm, a car-like mobile robot could be controlled to move to a desired posture within a prescribed boundary. The performance is verified through simulations and experiments using a car-like mobile robot.
