Autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) face challenges in efficiently covering complex environments. To navigate narrow and expansive areas, AMRs must have two essential attributes: compact size for confined spaces and larger size with omnidirectional locomotion for broader spaces. This study utilizes omni…
Cleaning robots are one of the market dominators in the commercialized robot space. So far, numerous robots have been introduced that can perform cleaning tasks in various settings, including floor, pavement, pool, lawn, windows, etc. However, none of the existing commercial cleaning robots targets…
Pavement cleaning is a labor-intensive, repetitive task and can be automated. Several autonomous pavement cleaning robots have been developed, pushing research towards their design and autonomous capabilities. Advances in design have been reported in earlier works on a self-reconfigurable robot with…
An efficient sensors fusion framework in an autonomous robot is necessary for various functions like object detection and perception enhancement. Multi-sensor calibration techniques are used to fuse multiple static sensors into a single frame of reference. However, for reconfigurable robots, sensors…
The research interest in mobile robots with independent steering wheels has been increasing over recent years due to their high mobility and better payload capacity over the systems using omnidirectional wheels. However, with more controllable degrees of freedom, almost all of the platforms include
