Adaptive inner-loop rover control

Adaptive control technology is developed for the inner-loop speed and steering control of the MAX Rover. MAX, a CMU developed Rover, is a compact low-cost 4-wheel drive, 4-wheel steer (double Ackerman), with high-clearance agile durable chassis. It is outfitted with sensors and electronics that make it ideally suited for supporting research relevant to intelligent teleoperation, and as a low-cost autonomous robotic test bed and appliance. The control design consists of a feedback linearization based controller with a proportional-integral (PI) feedback that is augmented by an online adaptive neural network. The adaptation law has guaranteed stability properties for safe operation. The control design is retrofit in nature so that it fits below the outer-loop path planning algorithms. Successful hardware implementation of the controller is illustrated for several scenarios consisting of actuator failures and modeling errors in the nominal design
