Title:
AUTONOMOUS MOBILE BODY AND CONTROL METHOD OF SAME
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/062095
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Disclosed is an autonomous mobile body capable of flexibly avoiding an obstacle. The mobile body is provided with a movement mechanism freely capable of translational motion within a horizontal plane and rotational motion around a vertical axis, wherein distance to an obstacle is obtained for each azimuth by an obstacle sensor. A potential related to translational motion of the mobile body and a potential related to rotational motion of the mobile body for avoiding interference with the obstacle are generated on the basis of the distance to the obstacle for each azimuth. On the basis of the generated potentials, a translational motion direction and a translational motion speed of the mobile body as well as a controlled amount related to a direction of a rotational motion and an angular speed are generated, and the mobile body is driven.
