Tutorial 3 Hands-on: Control and navigation of unmanned robotic systems

The short course provides a comprehensive study of navigation and control of underwater, ground and aerial robotic vehicles. It summarizes kinematics, dynamics and equations of motion, and continues with navigation controller design and implementation. This is followed by an integrated control and diagnostics framework implemented under a modular, hierarchical architecture.
Linear, linearized, nonlinear and soft-computing based controller designs are discussed, while specific controller designs are preferred for each family of robotic vehicles. Case studies include simulation and experimental results for several prototype robotic vehicles.

Tutorial hands-on and demos are divided in three groups which will rotate together every hour:

15:30 – 16:30 Group 1
T1 hands-on: University of Girona
Group 2
T2 hands-on: University of Porto
Group 3
T3 hands-on: Kimon Valavanis
