The study in this thesis encompassed the integration of ROS and the Microsoft Kinect for simultaneous localization and mapping and autonomous navigation on a mobile robot platform in an unknown and dynamic environment. The Microsoft Kinect was utilized for this thesis due to its relatively low cost and similar capabilities to laser range scanners. The Microsoft Kinect produced three-dimensional point-cloud data of the surrounding environment within the field-of-view. The point-cloud data was then converted to mimic a laser scan. The odometry data from the mobile robot platform and the converted laser scan were utilized by a ROS package for simultaneous localization and mapping. Once self-localization and mapping were achieved, a ROS navigation package was utilized to generate a global and local plan, which translated to motor velocities in order to move the robot to its objective. The results demonstrated that simultaneous localization and mapping and autonomous navigation can be achieved through the integration of ROS and the Microsoft Kinect.}, urldate = {2017-05-30}, school = {Monterey, California: Naval Postgraduate School}, author = {Lum, Joshua S.}, month = sep, year = {2015}, file = {Snapshot:/home/me/.mozilla/firefox/zyy3fqcb.default/zotero/storage/MBWXKMMJ/47300.html:text/html} } @misc{clearpath, title = {Clearpath {Robotics}: {Autonomous} {Mobile} {Robots}}, url = {https://www.clearpathrobotics.com/}, urldate = {2017-05-30}, file = {Clearpath Robotics\: Autonomous Mobile Robots:/home/me/.mozilla/firefox/zyy3fqcb.default/zotero/storage/CXKICC5R/www.clearpathrobotics.com.html:text/html} } @misc{husky, title = {Husky {UGV} - {Outdoor} {Field} {Research} {Robot} by {Clearpath}}, url = {https://www.clearpathrobotics.com/husky-unmanned-ground-vehicle-robot/}, abstract = {Husky unmanned outdoor field robot is a leading UGV for all-terrain robotics research.

However, due to the complex wheel-ground interactions and the kinematic constraints, it is a challenge to understand the kinematics and dynamics of such a robotic platform. In this paper, we develop an analysis and experimental kinematic scheme for a skid-steering wheeled vehicle based-on a laser scanner sensor. The kinematics model is established based on the boundedness of the instantaneous centers of rotation (ICR) of treads on the 2D motion plane. The kinematic parameters (the ICR coefficient χ, the path curvature variable λ and robot speed v), including the effect of vehicle dynamics, are introduced to describe the kinematics model. Then, an exact but costly dynamic model is used and the simulation of this model’s stationary response for the vehicle shows a qualitative relationship for the specified parameters χ and λ. Moreover, the parameters of the kinematic model are determined based-on a laser scanner localization experimental analysis method with a skid-steering robotic platform, Pioneer P3-AT. The relationship between the ICR coefficient χ and two physical factors is studied, i.e., the radius of the path curvature λ and the robot speed v. An empirical function-based relationship between the ICR coefficient of the robot and the path parameters is derived. To validate the obtained results, it is empirically demonstrated that the proposed kinematics model significantly improves the dead-reckoning performance of this skid–steering robot.}, number = {5}, urldate = {2017-05-30}, journal = {Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)}, author = {Wang, Tianmiao and Wu, Yao and Liang, Jianhong and Han, Chenhao and Chen, Jiao and Zhao, Qiteng}, month = apr, year = {2015}, pmid = {25919370}, pmcid = {PMC4481911}, pages = {9681--9702}, file = {PubMed Central Full Text PDF:/home/me/.mozilla/firefox/zyy3fqcb.default/zotero/storage/9S86TQ6R/Wang et al. - 2015 - Analysis and Experimental Kinematics of a Skid-Ste.pdf:application/pdf} } @inproceedings{c3, title = {Factitious force method in control of skid-steering platforms with rare constraints in motion}, doi = {10.1109/MMAR.2016.7575215}, abstract = {In the paper new control algorithm for skid-steering mobile platforms has been presented. This control law is based on mathematical model of such object. In the model it has been assumed that wheels of the skid-steering platform are not coupled by tracks and that they can move without some slipping effects, namely with lack of longitudinal slipping of selected wheels and lack of lateral slipping of rear axis. Because skid-steering platform can be considered as nonholonomic system, underactuated on dynamic level (there are only two control inputs to system's dynamics), therefore new control method of underactuated systems has been applied: method of using “factitious forces”. In theoretical considerations and in computer simulations it has been shown that skid-steering platform can track desired trajectory, not necessary admissible, if driving wheels move without longitudinal slipping.

We are concerned with the number of robots for a given exploration task that minimizes both exploration time and cost. Minimizing time means that the exploration should be done as fast as possible. Minimizing cost means that the number of robots and their energy consumption should be as low as possible. To solve this problem, we report in this paper, on a series of exploration simulations based on ROS and MORSE using a cluster of computers. The simulated code is exactly the same as that which would run on the actual robots. Such a simulation infrastructure is crucial to “quickly” execute experiments with different parameters such as the number of robots or their initial positions.}, language = {en}, urldate = {2017-05-30}, booktitle = {Simulation, {Modeling}, and {Programming} for {Autonomous} {Robots}}, publisher = {Springer, Cham}, author = {Yan, Zhi and Fabresse, Luc and Laval, Jannik and Bouraqadi, Noury}, month = oct, year = {2014}, pages = {438--449}, file = {Snapshot:/home/me/.mozilla/firefox/zyy3fqcb.default/zotero/storage/D2NXU9VB/978-3-319-11900-7_37.html:text/html} } @misc{gazebo, title = {Simulating {Jackal}}, url = {http://docs.ros.org/indigo/api/jackal_tutorials/html/simulation.html}, urldate = {2017-05-30}, file = {Simulating Jackal — jackal_tutorials 0.5.3 documentation:/home/me/.mozilla/firefox/zyy3fqcb.default/zotero/storage/4DAHFT7Q/simulation.html:text/html} } @misc{gazebo2, title = {Gazebo}, url = {http://gazebosim.org/}, urldate = {2017-05-30}, file = {Gazebo:/home/me/.mozilla/firefox/zyy3fqcb.default/zotero/storage/UUUFZDJS/gazebosim.org.html:text/html} } @misc{noauthor_gazebo_nodate, title = {Gazebo : {Tutorial} : {Building} {Editor}}, url = {http://gazebosim.org/tutorials?tut=building_editor}, urldate = {2017-05-30}, file = {Gazebo \: Tutorial \: Building Editor:/home/me/.mozilla/firefox/zyy3fqcb.default/zotero/storage/UZF4IH5T/tutorials.html:text/html} } @misc{arduino, title = {Arduino - {Introduction}}, url = {https://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/Introduction}, urldate = {2017-05-30}, file = {Arduino - Introduction:/home/me/.mozilla/firefox/zyy3fqcb.default/zotero/storage/WPB6GKV7/Introduction.html:text/html} } @misc{arduino2, title = {Arduino {UNO}}, url = {http://www.arduino.org/products/boards/arduino-uno}, abstract = {Arduino Uno board contains everything needed to support the microntroller.
