Autonomous flight at low altitude with vision-based collision avoidance and GPS-based path following
The ability to fly at low altitude while actively avoiding collisions with the terrain and other objects is a great challenge for small unmanned aircraft. This paper builds on top ...

Combined Path-following and Obstacle Avoidance Control of a Wheeled Robot
This paper proposes an algorithm that drives a unicycle type robot to a desired path, including obstacle avoidance capabilities. The path-following control design relies on Lyapun...

Singularity avoidance for over-actuated, pseudo-omnidirectional, wheeled mobile robots
— For mobile platforms with steerable standard wheels it is necessary to precisely coordinate rotation and steering angle of their wheels. An established approach to ensure this ...

Optimal Rough Terrain Trajectory Generation for Wheeled Mobile Robots
An algorithm is presented for wheeled mobile robot trajectory generation that achieves a high degree of generality and efficiency. The generality derives from numerical lineariza...
