Development of a Test Bed for Real-time Guidance and Control of an Autonomous Vehicle

Languages : en
Pages : 200
Book Description
An operational prototype of a ground vehicle that may be used as a test bed for future experiments in autonomous guidance, navigation, and control is developed. Key topics in the research include vehicle dynamics and modeling, inertial navigation, hardware/software integration, and system identification. The vehicle dynamics are derived from a simplified 3 degree-of-freedom (2 translational axes and 1 rotational axis) model, and inertial navigation equations are developed for the 2-dimensional, planar case. Descriptions of the hardware subsystems, which include the vehicle, onboard computer, sensors, actuators, and communications radio are presented. The execution of the real-time, onboard software used to perform control input/output as well as the ground station software application is outlined. Finally, the methodology and results of system identification experiments used to estimate the servo actuators and vehicle modeling parameters are given. Field testing demonstrated successful execution of the onboard and ground station software applications as well as the sensors and actuators subsystems. The vehicle was operated open-loop by uploading a sequence of steering and throttle commands from the ground station, and the sensor measurement data was recorded. The recorded data was used to estimate modeling parameters of the servo actuator mechanisms and the vehicle. The servo actuator models obtained from identification resulted in good matching between the simulated and physical responses with little deviation. The estimated vehicle parameters obtained from identification also resulted in good matching between the simulated and physical responses. Deviations between the simulated and physical responses are likely due to measurement errors present in the calculation of the vehicle states. The results of this research provide a proof-of-concept and demonstrate the viability of constructing an operational platform for vehicle autonomy.

Creating Autonomous Vehicle Systems

ISBN: 1681739364
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
This is one of the first technical overviews of autonomous vehicles written for a general computing and engineering audience. Students will find a comprehensive overview of the entire autonomous technology stack and practitioners will find many practical techniques. Throughout the book, the authors share their practical experiences designing autonomous vehicle systems. These systems are complex, consisting of three major subsystems: (1) algorithms for localization, perception, and planning and control; (2) client systems, such as the robotics operating system and hardware platform; and (3) the cloud platform, which includes data storage, simulation, high-definition (HD) mapping, and deep learning model training. The algorithm subsystem extracts meaningful information from sensor raw data to understand its environment and make decisions as to its future actions. The client subsystem integrates these algorithms to meet real-time and reliability requirements. The cloud platform provides offline computing and storage capabilities for autonomous vehicles. Using the cloud platform, new algorithms can be tested so as to update the HD map in addition to training better recognition, tracking, and decision models. Since the first edition of this book was released, many universities have adopted it in their autonomous driving classes, and the authors received many helpful comments and feedback from readers. Based on this, the second edition was improved by extending and rewriting multiple chapters and adding two commercial test case studies. In addition, a new section entitled “Teaching and Learning from this Book” was added to help instructors better utilize this book in their classes. The second edition captures the latest advances in autonomous driving and that it also presents usable real-world case studies to help readers better understand how to utilize their lessons in commercial autonomous driving projects.
