Sensor and actuator modeling of a realistic wheeled mobile robot simulator

View document

Bibliographic Details
Summary:This paper describes the sensor and actuator modelingof a realistic wheeled mobile robot simulator. The motivationof developing such simulator is to produce a personalizedversatile tool that allows production and validationof robot software reducing considerably the developmenttime. The mobile robot simulator was developed in ObjectPascal with its dynamics based on the ODE (OpenDynamics Engine), allowing to develop robot software fora three wheel omnidirectional robot equipped with Infra-Red distance sensors and brushless motors.
