The information fusion of vision sensor and Millimeter Wave(MMW) radar can enhance the adaptability of the Unmanned Ground Vehicle(UGV) to the complex environment. Space alignment is the basic step of information fusion. Based on the alignment problems camera and MMW radar has existed, firstly, according to the max velocity of UGV and the different attention on the close and far object, the calibration distance is determined and divided; then, a space alignment method is presented through the corresponding space point sets in image pixel coordinate of camera and polar coordinate of MMW radar. the results are verified through the experiment and the error is also analyzed.

The paper describes our preliminary investigation of haptic interaction between the human and virtual iCub robot. With haptic interaction,the user is able to have tactile sensensaiton of the robot environment,and hence to manipulate a robot remotely,for instance,from the user's office to perform some tasks at home,or a patient operation,realized by a surgeon several miles *** this work,haptic interaction has been implemented using a 3D joystick,Novint Falcon,to connect with a virtual robot created by the Cub Simulator,which works with YARP interface and simulates the real iCub robot developed by Italian *** this end,two approaches based on CHAI3D and MATLAB are introduced and implemented in this paper and furthermore,some ideas to improve the human-robot interaction performance have also been discussed.

This paper is concerned with stability analysis of networked controlsystems with aperiodic sampling and time-varying delay. The sampling times are assumed to vary within a known interval. The network-induced delay is assumed to belong to a given interval. The closed-loop system is modeled as a system with two time-delays and normbounded uncertainties coming from variations of sampling intervals. Using common Lyapunov function approach, a sufficient stability condition for the closed-loop system is derived and presented in terms of linear matrix inequality (LMI). A numerical example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Kalman filtering techniques have been widely used in many applications, however, standard Kalman filters for linear Gaussian systems usually cannot work well or even diverge in the presence of large model uncertainty. In practical applications, it is expensive to have large number of high-cost experiments or even impossible to obtain an exact system model. Motivated by our previous pioneering work on finite-model adaptive control, a framework of finite-model Kalman filtering is introduced in this paper. This framework presumes that large model uncertainty may be restricted by a finite set of known models which can be very different from each other. Moreover, the number of known models in the set can be flexibly chosen so that the uncertain model may always be approximated by one of the known models, in other words, the large model uncertainty is “covered” by the “convex hull” of the known models. Within the presented framework according to the idea of adaptive switching via the minimizing vector distance principle, a simple finite-model Kalman filter, MVDP-FMKF, is mathematically formulated and illustrated by extensive simulations. An experiment of MEMS gyroscope drift has verified the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm, indicating that the mechanism of finite-model Kalman filter is useful and efficient in practical applications of Kalman filters, especially in inertial navigation systems.

In this paper, several filtering methods for a class of discrete-time stochastic linear time-varying multi-agent systems with local coupling uncertainties have been investigated. Every agent can only observe its own measurements (outputs) and its neighbor agents' outputs while the states are invisible to any agent because of communication limitations existing in the considered multi-agent system. Because of the information constraints, without knowing the coupling gains of the local interactions, it is not easy for each agent to estimate its states by traditional Kalman filter or other state observers. Noting of the existence of coupling uncertainties in many practical applications, this paper introduces one general framework of decentralized filtering problem of multi-agent systems. For the considered system, based on the key idea of state augmentation and the certainty-equivalence principle borrowed from principles in adaptive control, we introduce several filtering methods to resolve the fundamental problem considered in this paper. By conducting extensive simulations, the consuming time and estimation errors of every method are compared for one typical example, which suggests which method is more precise and faster.
