On-Line Learning for Planning and Control of Underactuated Robots with Uncertain Dynamics
Giulio Turrisi, Marco Capotondi, Claudio Gaz +3
We present an iterative approach for planning and controlling motions of underactuated robots with uncertain dynamics. At its core, there is a learning process which estimates the…
An Efficient Real-Time NMPC for Quadrotor Position Control under Communication Time-Delay
Barbara Barros Carlos, Tommaso Sartor, Andrea Zanelli +4
The advances in computer processor technology have enabled the application of nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) to agile systems, such as quadrotors. These systems are char…
Gait Generation using Intrinsically Stable MPC in the Presence of Persistent Disturbances
Filippo M. Smaldone, Nicola Scianca, Valerio Modugno +2
Maintaining balance while walking is not a simple task for a humanoid robot because of its complex dynamics. The presence of a persistent disturbance makes this task even more chal…
MPC for Humanoid Gait Generation: Stability and Feasibility
Nicola Scianca, Daniele De Simone, Leonardo Lanari +1
We present IS-MPC, an intrinsically stable MPC framework for humanoid gait generation which incorporates an explicit stability constraint in the formulation. The proposed method us…
Decentralized Multi-Robot Encirclement of a 3D Target with Guaranteed Collision Avoidance
Antonio Franchi, Paolo Stegagno, Giuseppe Oriolo
We present a control framework for achieving encirclement of a target moving in 3D using a multi-robot system. Three variations of a basic control strategy are proposed for differe…
