Abstract
This study designed an algorithm for the intelligent control of the motion of a mobile robot with mecanum wheels. After reviewing the model kinematics and dynamics of the robot, we conducted a synthesis of the neural control algorithm to determine network weight adaptation, according to Lyapunov stability theory. Using a MATLAB/Simulink computing environment, we developed a numerical simulation for the implementation of the robot’s motion path with parametric disturbances acting on the control object. To determine the quality of the implementation of the desired motion path, a numerical test of the robot’s motion, controlled with the use of a PD controller, was conducted. The proposed control algorithm was verified on a laboratory stand equipped with a dSpace DS1103 controller board and a Husarion Panther four-wheeled mobile robot with mecanum wheels. The conducted research confirmed the improved implementation of the desired motion path by a robot controlled with the use of an intelligent control system.Keywords
