Fuzzy controlled avoidance for a mobile robot in a transportation optimisation

Abstract

Autonomous mobile robot is a widely studied domain, which is highly composed with all the state of art techniques, from the mechanics to the electronics. The key contributions of this article is the study of different robots existing in the market and industry, comparing their technical performances with a special robot, the ROBOTINO <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">®</sup> of Festo, and the correction of its kinetic model and the adaption of an omnidirectional dynamic model, in order to better control its navigation performance by a fuzzy controller. Finally an optimization application in the production line production linewill be presented.
