The book begins with a study of mobile robot drives and corresponding kinematic and dynamic models, and discusses the sensors used in mobile robotics. It then examines a variety of model-based, model-free, and vision-based controllers with unified proof of their stabilization and tracking performance, also addressing the problems of path, motion, and task planning, along with localizationElsevier insights.Mobile robotsAutomatic controlRoboticsHuman factorsMobile robotsAutomatic control.RoboticsHuman factors.718Tzafestas S.
