Abstract [en]

An increase in functionality of semi-autonomous vehicles (SAV) through the implementation of intelligent distributed control and smart sensing techniques is presented. In combination with a modular design approach, this facilitates system modification and improvement, combined with faster customisation of the platform. A distributed and reactive behavioural control architecture is used to realise local autonomous navigation capabilities; improved operator interaction; self protection and safer operation. A virtual engineering environment based on a computer-aided-graphics platform is used (1) for modelling the vehicle and the environment in which it can operate; (2) developing pre-emptive learning and training of responses/behaviours, and (3) for evaluation of vehicle functionality as part of an integrated materials handling system.

Note

The research programme described in this paper is funded by the EU INCO-Copernicus programme IC15CT960726 with additional support from The Swedish National Board for Industrial and Technical Development, NUTEK. The project also involves major contributions from Kaunas University of Technology (Lithuania) in the development of intelligent sensor arrays, TCC (Russia) in the development of new SAV configurations for out door environments and MSTU Bauman (Russia) in the development of intelligent control architectures. The authors would also like to acknowledge the contribution of Dr Patric Eriksson for his role in helping to develop the original concepts for this work.
