Multi-Agent Path Finding (MAPF) in complex environments remains challenging due to high computational complexity, frequent conflicts, and realistic motion constraints. Most existing methods focus on discrete spaces or idealized omnidirectional models, often neglecting or partially considering nonhol
Autonomous navigation in unstructured, off-road environments remains a critical challenge due to complex terrain and limited prior knowledge. This letter presents a hierarchical framework to generate paths across locally flat regions and optimize spatio-temporal trajectories under vehicle kinodynami
Stable autonomous driving in unstructured off-road environments remains a longstanding challenge. In the absence of structured roads and in the presence of uneven terrain, vegetation, and soil slopes, vehicles must rely on LiDAR–Camera fusion to identify stable and traversable roads. However, existi…
The application scenarios of automated robots are undergoing a paradigm shift from structured environments to unstructured, complex settings. In highly constrained settings like factory inspections or disaster rescue, conventional steering systems show clear drawbacks. While the four-wheel independe
With the rapid advancement of intelligent manufacturing and the rise of emerging markets, global auto-mobile exports have surged, placing unprecedented demands on logistics infrastructure. Efficient coordination of multiple robots for vehicle autonomous transfer is essential in high-density storage
Regular temperature measurement of critical parts of an annealing furnace has always been a difficult task. Due to the harsh environment of high temperature, high noise, and darkness in the annealing furnace operation area, unmanned vehicles equipped with the RGB-T semantic segmentation model are us
In the context of unstructured and unknown environment, the autonomous navigation still faces many challenges, such as assessing rough terrain and deciding how to safely navigate complex terrain. In this work, we propose a robust and practical off-road navigation framework that has been successfully…
In the labor-intensive Roll-On/Roll-Off (RO/RO) terminal environment, research on vehicle transport robots with mobility, stability, and reliability is receiving increasing attention. This paper presents a novel control framework for a Straddle-Type Dual-Body vehicle transfer robot. Initially, fine…
Tracking dynamic targets poses a significant challenge for Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs). Existing methods often lack research on multi-disturbed conditions. To address this issue, we propose a trajectory-prediction-based dynamic tracking scheme, which includes target localization, trajectory pred…
In order to guarantee autonomous vehicles' autonomy, mobility, and ride quality in rugged environments, a real-time speed planning method based on the time-frequency transformation of terrain characteristics is designed to achieve adaptive speed planning of autonomous vehicles in rough ground. On th…
In this paper, we propose a parallel six-wheel-legged robot that can traverse irregular terrain while carrying objectives to do heavy-duty work. This robot is equipped with six Stewart platforms as legs and tightly integrates the additional degrees of freedom introduced by the wheels. The presented…
