Mobile Robots: Navigation, Control and Remote Sensing

Written for a one-semester course in electrical engineering, this book provides comprehensive coverage of mobile robot applications. The book presents the major areas of mobile robot applications—control, navigation, and remote sensing—which are essential to not only detecting desired objects but also providing accurate information on their precise locations. Topics include kinematic models for mobile robots, mobile robot control, robot attitude, and robot navigation.

MATLAB is used to solve example problems in the book.
