TL;DR: In this paper, two filters such as Complementary and Kalman are investigated to compare the performance and the hardware platform of quadcopter is built to denote experimental results in order to validate the effective design ofComplementary filter andKalman filter in quadcopters.
Abstract: Most of quadcopter operate in the outdoor environment where is often complex and unpredicted. In order to control the quadcopter in unknown outdoor environment, it should be designed an excellent filter to estimate complete state vector which illustrates the movement of rigid body. In this paper, two filters such as Complementary and Kalman are investigated to compare the performance. Quadcopter collect only measurements from a low-cost inertial measurement unit, IMU-MPU6050. The raw data is put into filter to estimate the state vector in system. In the simulations, these filters are studied to implement in the model of quadrotor. Later, the hardware platform of quadcopter is built to denote experimental results in order to validate the effective design of Complementary filter and Kalman filter in quadcopter.

The overall architecture of motion system is investigated to realize the drawbacks of traditional scheme. Then, this research proposes the suitable design of controller due to rapid calculation, high precision and friendly graphical user interface. The diagram of Fuzzy self-tuning PID and feedforward is constructed to drive the servo machine. The hardware platform of controller has been accomplised such as schematic, PCB artworks and soldering. Later, the middleware and firmware have been closed to promote the execution between controller and computer. The intelligent algorithm is embedded in board level by TMS320C6727 to overcome the problems, for example the existing nonlinear properties, external disturbances or servo lag phenomena. Based on the theoretical design, several simulation results are provided to verify the contributions.

Abstract: In industrial environments, over several decades, Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) and Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) have served to improve efficiencies of intralogistics and material handling tasks. However, for system integrators, the choice and effective deployment of improved, suitable and reliable communication and control technologies for these unmanned vehicles remains a very challenging task. Specifics of communication for AGVs and AMRs imposes stringent performance requirements on latency and reliability of communication links which many existing wireless technologies struggle to satisfy. In this paper, a review of latest AGVs and AMRs research results in the past decade is presented. The review encompasses results from different past and present research domains of AGVs. In addition, performance requirements of communication networks in terms of their latencies and reliabilities when they are deployed for AGVs and AMRs coordination, control and fleet management in smart manufacturing environments are discussed. Integration challenges and limitations of present state-of-the-art AGV and AMR technologies when those technologies are used for facilitating AGV-based smart manufacturing and factory of the future applications are also thoroughly discussed. The paper also present a thorough discussion of areas in need of further research regarding the application of 5G networks for AGVs and AMRs fleet management in smart manufacturing environments. In addition, novel integration ideas by which tactile Internet, 5G network slicing and virtual reality applications can be used to facilitate AGV and AMR based factory of the future (FoF) and smart manufacturing applications were motivated.

TL;DR: This platform might be an excellent tool to teach and visualize the practical scenario in a multi-disciplinary field and is proved to be better by combining specialized understandings of various types in a wide range of applications.
Abstract: Nowadays, global engineers need to be equipped with professional skills and knowledge to solve 21st century problems. The educational program, created in digital learning rooms of the Higher Engineering Education Alliance Program (HEEAP) program supported by Arizona State University, became a pioneer in teaching learners to work within the community. First, the combination of a novel instructional strategy and an integrated education in which project-based approach is employed to apply the technical knowledge. During this, students in mechatronics, computer science, and mechanics must collaborate with peers from industrial systems engineering. Second, in this paper, the design of an open structure connecting multi-disciplinary major is illustrated with a new teaching approach. It is proved to be better by combining specialized understandings of various types in a wide range of applications. From this basis support, participants could implement additional components quickly while keeping the cost low, making the products feasible and user-friendly. Last but not least, students are facilitated with a free library that helps to control simply despite lacking experience in robotics or automation. Several examples show that students are capable of developing things by themselves on open design. In brief, this platform might be an excellent tool to teach and visualize the practical scenario in a multi-disciplinary field.

TL;DR: A closed-loop motion control system based on BP neural network (BPNN) PID controller by using a Xilinx field programmable gate array (FPGA) solution is proposed, which can realize the self-tuning of PID control parameters, and has the characteristics of reliable performance, high real-time performance, and strong anti-interference.
Abstract: In the actual industrial production process, the method of adaptively tuning proportional–integral–derivative (PID) parameters online by neural network can adapt to different characteristics of different controlled objects better than the controller with PID. However, the commonly used microcontroller unit (MCU) cannot meet the application scenarios of real time and high reliability. Therefore, in this paper, a closed-loop motion control system based on BP neural network (BPNN) PID controller by using a Xilinx field programmable gate array (FPGA) solution is proposed. In the design of the controller, it is divided into several sub-modules according to the modular design idea. The forward propagation module is used to complete the forward propagation operation from the input layer to the output layer. The PID module implements the mapping of PID arithmetic to register transfer level (RTL) and is responsible for completing the output of control amount. The main state machine module generates enable signals that control the sequential execution of each sub-module. The error backpropagation and weight update module completes the update of the weights of each layer of the network. The peripheral modules of the control system are divided into two main parts. The speed measurement module completes the acquisition of the output pulse signal of the encoder and the measurement of the motor speed. The pulse width modulation (PWM) signal generation module generates PWM waves with different duty cycles to control the rotation speed of the motor. A co-simulation of Modelsim and Simulink is used to simulate and verify the system, and a test analysis is also performed on the development platform. The results show that the proposed system can realize the self-tuning of PID control parameters, and also has the characteristics of reliable performance, high real-time performance, and strong anti-interference. Compared with MCU, the convergence speed is far more than three orders of magnitude, which proves its superiority.
