In this survey, we discuss current approaches to the robust control of the motion of robots and summarize the available literature on the subject. The three major designs discussed are the "Linear-Multivariable" Approach, the "Passivity" approach and the "Variable-Structure" approach. The survey is limited to rigid robots and nonadaptive controllers.
Navigation and collision avoidance are major areas of research in mobile robotics.that involve varying degrees of uncertainty. In general, the problem consists of achieving sensor based motion control of a mobile robo...

A memory-based robotic control paradigm which learns relationships between a control effort and a change of state is introduced. It has been used to develop a learning control system which implements step responses in one dimension on a robotic gripper, with partial success. It was found that velocity as well as positional feedback were required to complete even simple movements. It is believed that aspects of this approach would readily extend to a tactile sensing system.< >

Various mine detection techniques are reviewed with particular emphasis on signal and image processing methods. Based on the target, mines are classified into two types; anti-tank mine (ATM) and anti-personnel mine (APM). Because of the variety of mine types, current mine detection techniques are diversified. The assumption is made that most mine detection techniques consist of sensor, signal processing, and decision processes. For the sensor part, ground penetration radar (GPR), infrared (IR), and ultrasound (US) sensors are reviewed and their characteristics are summarized for the corresponding output signals. For the signal processing and decision parts, a set of image processing techniques including filtering, enhancement, feature extraction, and segmentation are surveyed. Segmentation is used to extract mine signal from various competing signals. For most image processing techniques covered by this paper, mine detection related experimental results are included or reproduced from existing works.

This paper describes the implementation of hierarchical control on a robotic manipulator using fuzzy logic. A decentralized control approach is implemented, i.e., individual controllers control the two links of the robot. The kinematic aspect of the control is treated as the supervisory mode at a higher level and the joint control is treated as the lower level. Fuzzy logic based rules determine the inverse kinematic mapping which maps the Cartesian coordinates to the individual joint angles. This scheme is implemented using Togai Infra Logic software and the entire simulation software is implemented using C language. The results of the simulation are discussed. This experiment is a proof of principle to show that the fuzzy controller can be used to map the nonlinear mapping which can be implemented to the more complex problem of inverse kinematics of higher degree of freedom robots. A fuzzy PD controller is implemented on a Rhino robot and the performance is compared with a traditional PD controller.< >
