Abstract
In wide-area and multi-sites manufacturing scenarios, the mobile manipulator suffers from inadequate autonomous parking performance due to the harsh industrial environment. Instead of struggling to model various errors or calibrate multiple sensors, this paper resolves the above challenge by proposing an iterative-learning error compensation scheme that consists of offline pre-regulation and online compensation, which can improve the compensation efficiency and accommodate the error fluctuations caused by environmental fluctuations. Integrating an improved Monte-Carlo localization and eye-in-hand vision technique, an effective measurement system is firstly developed to accurately obtain the parking data without requiring superfluous facilities or cumbersome measurement. Then, after removing the data outliers utilizing the Grubbs test, offline pre-regulation is achieved to give a suitable initial value and increase the compensation convergence. To reduce the time-varying systematic errors and parking error fluctuations, online compensation is presented by offering an efficacious estimation of environmental fluctuations using fuzzy logic rules and providing an adaptive iterative-learning law. Finally, the feasibility and effectiveness of the presented compensation method are validated by extensive experiments implemented on a self-developed mobile manipulator.
