6、an excalibur ei-msd2003 remote control toy tank. the device was stripped of all electronics, gears, and extraneous parts in order to work with just the empty case and two dc motors for the tank treads. however, this left a somewhat uneven surface to work on, so high-density polyethylene (hdpe) rods

7、were used to fill in empty spaces. since hdpe has a rather low surface energy, which is not ideal for bonding with other materials, a propane torch was used to raise surface temperature and improve bonding with an epoxy adhesive. three sharp gp2d12 infrared sensors, which have a range of 10 to 80 cm

8、, were used for distance measurements. in order to mount these appropriately, a 2.5 by 15 cm piece of aluminum was bent into three even pieces at 135 degree angles. this allows for the ir sensors to take three different measurements at 45 degree angles (right, middle, and left distances). this senso

9、r mount was then attached to an hdpe rod with mounting tape and the rod was glued to the tank base with epoxy. since the minimum distance that can be reliably measured with these sensors is 10 cm, the sensors were placed about 9 cm from the front of the vehicle. this allowed measurements to be taken

10、 very close to the front of the robot.2.2. electronicsin order to control the speed of each motor, pulse-width modulation (pwm) was used to drive two l2722 op amps in open loop mode (fig. 1). the high input resistance of these ics allow for the motors to be powered with very little power draw from t

11、he pwm circuitry. in order to isolate the motors power supply from the rest of the electronics, a 9.6 v nicad battery was used separately from a standard 9 v that demand on the op amps led to a small amount of overheating during continuous operation. this was remedied by adding small heat sinks and

14、le the final algorithm depended critically on the geometry of the robot itself and how it operates, some basic guidelines were followed. similar research projects provided both simulation results and ideas for implementing fuzzy control.3,4,53.1. membership functionsthree sets of membership function

15、s were created to express degrees of membership for distances, translational speeds, and rotational speeds. this made for a total of two input membership functions and eight output membership functions (fig. 2). triangle and trapezoidal functions were used exclusively since they are quick to compute

16、 and easy to modify. keeping computation time to a minimum was essential so that many sets of data could be analyzed every second (approximately one every 40 milliseconds). the distance membership functions allowed the distances from the ir sensors to be quickly fuzzified, while the eight speed memb

18、output components. it was then necessary to take the maximum of these values as the fuzzy value for each component. finally, these fuzzy output values were defuzzified using the max-product technique and the result was used to update each of the motor speeds.(a)(b)(c)fig. 2. the membership functions

19、 used for (a) distance, (b) translation speed, and (c) rotational speed. these functions were adapted from similar work done in reference 3.4. resultsthe fuzzy control scheme allowed for the robot to quickly respond to obstacles it could detect in its environment. this allowed it to follow walls and

20、 bend around corners decently without hitting any obstacles. however, since the ir sensors measurements depended on the geometry of surrounding objects, there were times when the robot could not detect obstacles. for example, when the ir beam hit a surface with oblique incidence, it would reflect aw

21、ay from the sensor and not register as an object. in addition, the limited number of rules used may have limited the dynamics of the robots responses. some articles suggest as many as forty rules6 should be used, while others tend to present between ten and twenty. since this project did not explore

22、 complex kinematics or computational simulations of the robot, it is difficult to determineexactly how many rules should be used. however, for the purposes of testing fuzzy logic as a navigational aide, the eight rules were sufficient. despite the many problems that ir and similar ultrasonic sensors

23、 have with reliably obtaining distances, the robustness of fuzzy logic was frequently able to prevent the robot from running into obstacles.5. conclusionthere are several easy improvements that could be made to future iterations of this project in order to improve the robots performance. the most dr

24、amatic would be to implement the ir or ultrasonic sensors on a servo so that they could each scan a full 180 degrees. however, this type of overhaul may undermine some of fuzzy logics helpful simplicity. another helpful tactic would be to use a few types of sensors so that data could be taken at mul

25、tiple ranges. the ir sensors used in this experiment had a minimum distance of 10 cm, so anything in front of this could not be reliably detected. similarly, the sensors had a maximum distance of 80 cm so it was difficult to react to objects far away. ultrasonic sensors do offer significantly increa

26、sed ranges at a slightly increased cost and response time. lastly, defining more membership functions could help improve the rule base by creating more fine tuned responses. however, this would again increase the complexity of the system.thus, this project has successfully implemented a simple fuzzy

44、这使得它能沿着墙壁和角落行动而不会撞击到任何障碍物。然而，由于红外传感器的尺寸取决于周围物体几何形状，很多时候机器人也无法检测到障碍物。例如，当红外线光束击中地面的倾斜处事，则反映出远离传感器和不认为是一个障碍对象。此外，使用有限数量的规则可能限制机器人的一些反应。有些文章建议多达40条规则应加以使用，而另一些倾向于10和20条之间。由于该项目不探索复杂的机器人运动学或模拟计算，以至于它是难以确定exactly how many rules should be used到底有多少规则应该被使用。但是，作为一个模糊逻辑的宗旨测试导航助手，八个规则就足够了。尽管有许多相似的问题，ir和超声波传感器的距离有可靠地获取途径，鲁棒性模糊逻辑通常是能够能防止机器人跑向障碍物。5.
