Offers a survey of control systems for serial-link robot arms and acknowledges how robotic device performance hinges upon a well-developed control system. This book explicates theoretical and mathematical requisites for controls design and summarizes techniques in computer simulation and implementation of controllers.

Addresses theoretical, technical, and practical aspects of the field. This book examines the key components that form an autonomous mobile robot, from sensors and sensor fusion to modeling and control, map building and path planning, and decision making and autonomy, and to the final integration of these components for diversified applications.

Reflects the developments in estimation theory and design techniques. This book covers the robust Kalman filter, H-infinity filtering, and H-infinity filtering of discrete-time systems. It includes examples that highlight practical applications of the theory and concepts.
