摘要
This paper describes research at West Virginia University that develops an autonomous mobile robot for use in underground mines. The navigation scheme combines elements of both hierarchical control and reactive or subsumptive-type control. The robot navigates by sensing the environment and selecting a navigational "mode" that is appropriate to the circumstances and to the robot's mission. Examples of navigational modes are wall following, collision avoidance, and homing. The modes are implemented in modules formed by combinations of neural network processors and conventional control algorithms. This paper describes the overall control system architecture and the navigational strategies of the experimental robot vehicle.
