摘要:
A control device for a model car is provided. The control device comprises: a rotation sensor configured to detect a rotation number of a first wheel and a rotation number of a second wheel of a model car; and a controller configured to perform driving control of a driving source of the model car such that a rotation number difference between the first wheel and the second wheel is reduced when the rotation number difference is greater than or equal to a threshold.

A multidirectional wheel system, apparatus, and method to control one or more multidirectional wheels to provide multidirectional motion or movement for a movable apparatus, such as a skateboard, roller blades, a car, a motorcycle, a cleaning robot, to which the one or more multidirectional wheels are attached. The multidirectional wheel system includes a braking system to slow and/or stop the movement of the multidirectional wheel(s). At least one of the multidirectional wheels is an omnidirectional wheel, with a plurality of multidirectional wheels acting thereon to control movement thereof. The multidirectional wheel system includes a drone, wherein the omnidirectional wheel operates based on instructions from the drone.

A method includes operating a wheeled vehicle including an articulated suspension system; and articulating the suspension system to skid steer the vehicle. A wheeled vehicle having an articulated suspension system includes a skid steering controller capable of articulating the suspension system to skid steer the vehicle. The skid steering controller may be implemented in software and may, but does not necessarily, include three stages for applying a differential torque, varying the traction of at least one wheel, and finely adjusting the wheel's suspension to approach a critical damped response of the vehicle turning rate with respect to its commanded rate, respectively.

A power steering device for a self-powered cargo-moving vehicle has a detented steering wheel which can be shifted by the operator to select either a manually operated, power steering mode, a manual override mode in which the guidance device is effectively disconnected and steering is undertaken by a direct mechanical linkage with the vehicle steering column, and, in one embodiment, an automatic, sensor-directed mode in which the vehicle is automatically guided to follow a magnetic wire path.

A mobile body includes a direction identifying unit that identifies a direction in which a communication target mobile body is positioned and a control unit that moves the mobile body by a first control amount indicating a pair consisting of a first absolute velocity value and a first velocity direction. Upon detecting that predetermined information is no longer received from the communication target mobile body, the control unit determines a second control amount by which the autonomous mobile robot is to be moved in the direction identified by the direction identifying unit and which indicates a pair consisting of a second absolute velocity value and a second velocity direction, and the control unit generates a second control command to switch the first control amount to the second control amount and move the autonomous mobile robot and outputs the generated second control command to a drive unit.
摘要:
An autonomous vehicle including a chassis, a conveyance system carrying the chassis, and a controller configured to steer the conveyance system. The controller is further configured to execute the steps of receiving steering radius information from a source; and creating steering instructions for the vehicle dependent upon the steering radius information from the source. The source not being from the vehicle itself.

Disclosed are a steering control device of an autonomous vehicle, an autonomous vehicle having the same, and a steering control method of an autonomous vehicle. The steering control method comprises receiving a position of an autonomous vehicle, and a first heading angle of the autonomous vehicle with respect to the north; calculating a second heading angle of the autonomous vehicle toward a tracking waypoint based on the position of the autonomous vehicle, and computing a rotation radius of the autonomous vehicle with respect to the tracking waypoint; calculating a yaw rate based on a speed of the autonomous vehicle and the computed rotation radius, and generating a steering command corresponding to the calculated yaw rate; and compensating for the steering command based on the first and second heading angles.
摘要:
A guidance system for a self-advancing vehicle such as a floor washing machine is provided in an arrangement which does not spoil the beauty of, for example, a floor surface, which can be reused multiple times, which is low in cost and which more reliably follows a guidance line. A guidance line is drawn with a luminous material or with a coating material mainly consisting thereof along a predetermined traveling path on a floor surface. The guidance line is drawn on the floor surface with a mixture in which the luminous material is dissolved or dispersed in a solvent. Alternatively, a mixture in which the luminous material is mixed with a coating agent such as floor polish or wax is applied to the floor surface to draw the guidance line. The luminous material is, for example, an ultraviolet-absorbing material, an infrared-absorbing material or a visible light-absorbing material. A self-advancing floor washing machine using the present invention comprises a traveling device with two casters and two independent drive wheels, the latter of which are guided by a combination of one or more photosensors which track the guidance line and send a signal to a control unit that controls the drive wheels. Based on the signals from the photosensors, the machine is guided along the guidance line.
