Teleoperation in harsh environments has to tackle the problem of working with images of poor quality, as the visual feedback means for the human operator. This paper describes a procedure for image augmentation, based on the models of the scene elements, which are built from the images acquired in a previous phase, before the execution of the task, when the visual environment conditions are still good enough.

Robot manipulation through teleoperation requires some ability from a human operator. This requirement is stronger when the tridimensional scene is observed through a 2D monitor. This paper describes a telemanipulation aiding system based on the superposition of a position correction component to the manual orders given by the human operator, through his gestures. This correction will enable the slave arm to move quicker when it is far from the target, while moving slower and more precisely when it operates close to the target, thus, the system behaves as if an external attraction force appear around the possible objects to be manipulated.

In general, characteristics of classical control theory and properties of real-time scheduling algorithms may cause unexpected control system responses in the implementation of real-time computer-controlled systems. Revising real-time scheduling properties, we analyse which are the main timing problems that current scheduling algorithms may introduce in the execution of control loops. Next, we categorise those timing problems, that is, jitters on task-instances executions, in a control context. Afterwards, we show, by simulations, different types of control system performance degradation that these jitters may cause. Finally, we propose possible solutions that solves this degradation, based on irregular sampling discrete-time system models with varying time delays.

In this paper a system for estimating position and orientation of a mobile robot in a non-structured environment, by means of self-organizing neural networks, is described. After perfonning an initiat learning phase, the system is able to incrementally build a representation of the environment. Position and orientation of the robot can then be obtained, upon data coming from the odometric system and sensors (ultrasound sensors, infrared sensors and 2D-Iaser sensor). The system has been implemented and tested on a NOMAD 200 robot. Experimental results are reported, which show the robot to be able to navigate without losing its way, and to adapt to changes in the environment.

Distributed control systems involve three main disciplines: control systems, real time systems, and communication systems. control systems, due their stringent timing constraints, demand real time computing technology. Distributed control systems need communication systems when distributing sensors, actuators, the control procedures and data messaging. In general, demands of distributed control systems and properties of real time scheduling algorithms differ, for example, for activation patterns of tasks. The aim of this paper is to provide a set of requirements to overcome current limitations of real time scheduling methods to their increase applicability for distributed control systems

In a multi mobile robot system is essential to avoid collisions and to coordinate the trajectories of multiple mobile robots in order to insure the safety and the correct operation of the whole process. It is reasonable to think that a qualitative approach is an adequate way in this context, because it is more important to model the space in a more or less risky collision zones that to know with precision the exact distance among robots. The qualitative solutions for space modelization and permitted trajectories problems which are presented in this work, give us some advantages in reference to the computational time.
