  1. Autonomous Guidance Navigation and Control Michael Gillham University of Kent SYSIASS Meeting University of Essex 21.04.11

  2. Problems Localisation and global goals. Local Minima and obstacle avoidance. Trajectory following smoothness. Sensor uncertainties or failure. Control robustness and safety criticality.

  3. Research Integration of higher level control with lower level incorporating learning and deliberation. Local minima avoidance and goal seeking solutions. Real-time dynamic and static collision avoidance incorporated into the trajectory manifold. Local path planning smoothness from look-ahead prediction. Removal of chatter and instabilities from sliding mode. Weightless neural network real-time feedback dynamic controller.

  4. Sensing for localisation and control LIDAR: Accurate ranging to obstacles and targets Stereo vision: Angle, depth, motion. Sonar: Immediate vicinity obstacles, motion. Magnetic: Simple inertial/body frame of reference. GPS: Localisation and map planning. Gyroscope: MEMS, attitude feedback. Accelerometers: Good feedback for smoothness. Wheel rotation sensor: Traction control.

  5. Path Planning

  6. Dynamic obstacle avoidance

  7. Higher level and lower level control

  8. Looking ahead • Feedback and feed-forward • Virtual vehicle method • Look ahead point
