Mobile Robotics: Models, Methods and Applications - by Jared Kroff (Hardcover)

About the Book

Mobile robotics comprises the design, construction, and programming of robots capable of moving in diverse environments. These robots integrate various sensors, actuators, and computational systems to navigate, interact, and perform tasks autonomously or semi-autonomously. From industrial automation to search and rescue operations, mobile robots have diversified applications. Key challenges include sensor integration, localization, path planning, and obstacle avoidance. Advancements in artificial intelligence, particularly in machine learning and computer vision, have significantly enhanced the capabilities of mobile robots, enabling them to adapt to dynamic environments and collaborate with humans more effectively. Mobile robotics plays a vital role in sectors like healthcare, agriculture, logistics, and space exploration, promising further innovation and societal impact in the future. This book is a compilation of chapters that discuss the most vital concepts and emerging trends in the field of mobile robotics. This book unfolds the innovative aspects of this field which will be crucial for the progress of this field in the future. Coherent flow of topics, student-friendly language and extensive use of examples make this book an invaluable source of knowledge.
