An integrated collision prediction and avoidance scheme for mobile robots in non-stationary environments

TLDR
A formulation that makes possible the integration of collision prediction and avoidance stages for mobile robots moving in general terrains containing moving obstacles is presented and local asymptotic stability is proved if the velocity of the moving obstacle is bounded.
Abstract
A formulation that makes possible the integration of collision prediction and avoidance stages for mobile robots moving in general terrains containing moving obstacles is presented. A dynamic model of the mobile robot and the dynamic constraints are derived. Collision avoidance is guaranteed if the distance between the robot and a moving obstacle is nonzero. A nominal trajectory is assumed to be known from off-line planning. The main idea is to change the velocity along the nominal trajectory so that collisions are avoided. A feedback control is developed and local asymptotic stability is proved if the velocity of the moving obstacle is bounded. Simulation results verify the value of the proposed strategy. >

Extended Kalman Filter for State Estimation and Trajectory Prediction of a Moving Object Detected by an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle

TL;DR: An extended Kalman filter is first used to estimate the states of a moving object detected by a UAV from its measured position in space, then the optimal object trajectory is predicted from the estimated object states and using the motion model defined for Kalman filtering.

Intentional motion on-line learning and prediction

TL;DR: This work proposes an approach which uses hidden Markov models (HMMs) to represent motion patterns, and is able to learn and predict in a concurrent fashion thanks to a novel approximate learning approach, based on the growing neural gas algorithm, which estimates both HMM parameters and structure.

Real-time obstacle avoidance for manipulators and mobile robots

TL;DR: This paper reformulated the manipulator control problem as direct control of manipulator motion in operational space-the space in which the task is originally described-rather than as control of the task's corresponding joint space motion obtained only after geometric and kinematic transformation.

Real-time obstacle avoidance for manipulators and mobile robots

TL;DR: In this article, a real-time obstacle avoidance approach for manipulators and mobile robots based on the "artificial potential field" concept is presented, where collision avoidance, traditionally considered a high level planning problem, can be effectively distributed between different levels of control.

Distance functions and their application to robot path planning in the presence of obstacles

TL;DR: An approach to robotic path planning, which allows optimization of useful performance indices in the presence of obstacles, is given and mathematical properties of the distance functions are studied, which lead to the formulation of path planning problems as problems in optimal control.
