Abstract:

This article proposes a novel visual servoing trajectory tracking controller satisfying velocity saturation constraints for mobile robots, which can simultaneously realize the unknown image depth identification. Compared with existing saturation controllers, the boundness of velocity commands can be explicitly determined, although the control law is coupled with the unknown depth. In addition, the asymptotic stability (generally realizing uniform ultimate boundedness) is achieved theoretically in the presence of both the velocity saturation constraints and the unknown depth parameter. To guarantee the velocity commands within the allowed speed limit, the saturation function is introduced into the visual servo control law to reshape tracking errors. Furthermore, to deal with the unknown depth, an adaptive updating law is skillfully constructed, which can simultaneously identify it under the persistent excitation condition. Also, to explicitly demonstrate the saturation performance of the designed visual servo controller, the boundness of velocity commands is analyzed, following which parameter selection rules are provided. The asymptotic convergence of tracking errors is theoretically proved with Lyapunov techniques. Finally, comparative experimental results show the effectiveness and superior performance of the proposed method.
