Spatial-temporal Collaborative Sequential Monte Carlo for Mobile Robot Localization in Distributed Intelligent Environments

Abstract

Abstract-In this paper, a spatial-temporal collaborative sequential Monte Carlo architecture for mobile robot localization is designed to well suites intelligent environment for service robotic system. A proposed algorithm, namely Distributed Proportional Allocation-Augmented Particle Filter (DPA-APF), resolves the sensor collaboration problem by the processes of augmented sampling, inter-node resampling, inner-node resampling and particle exchange. These procedures exploit data parallelism and pipelining of resampling operations and improve the scalability of distributed particle filters (PFs).Moreover, modified visual and laser sensor perception models are also addressed to guarantee reliable and accurate robot localization in dynamic scenarios that robot coexists with people. The proposed method is applied to a home-care robotic intelligent room with distributed smart nodes, and the

Building and Programming a Smart Robotic System for Distinguishing Objects Based on their Shape and Colour

“…To develop the applications of hold-and-place robots, it is important to automate its manipulation process [1,2,3,4,5,6,7]. Also, vision is considered to be the most valuable sense of automating a robotic system.…”

Investigation on Data Extraction Trends for Snake Robot

“…Currently, serpentine locomotion is improved with some modification of the locomotion for the improvement of its' working ability. Serpentine locomotion was investigated by various researchers using image processing [4][5], though some researchers are developed different methods of investigation of the robot [10][11]. The investigation does not meet the complete criteria of the serpentine locomotion.…”

Probabilistic Joint State Estimation of Robot and Non-static Objects for Mobile Manipulation

“…Among these methods, intelligent robots are believed to be able to function in a human-like way and provide kinds of services for people [3][4] [5]. More concretely, mobile service robots are installed in home care environments, endowed with capabilities of a large variety of manipulative or collective tasks [6] [7], for example, delivering messages, fetching objects, cleaning rooms, opening doors and so on.…”
