Autonomous Mobile Robots: Sensing, Control, Decision Making, and Applications.0849337488 Autonomous mobile robots A Mobile Robot is an automatic machine that is capable of movement in a given environment. Overview Mobile robots have the capability to move around in their environment and are not fixed to one physical location. ; sensing, control, decision making, and applications. Ed. by Shuzhi Sam Ge and Frank L. Lewis. CRC (Cyclical Redundancy Checking) An error checking technique used to ensure the accuracy of transmitting digital data. The transmitted messages are divided into predetermined lengths which, used as dividends, are divided by a fixed divisor. Press 2006 709 pages $169.95 Hardcover Control engineering; 22 TJ211 Ge (National U. of Singapore) and Lewis (automation and robotics, U. of Texas at Arlington) present 17 contributions (written by 46 contributors) describing theoretical, technical, and practical issues common to both centralized cen·tral·ize v. cen·tral·ized, cen·tral·iz·ing, cen·tral·iz·es v.tr. 1.

Each contribution includes abundant references for more in-depth research, but the volume generally is intended to provide broad, cohesive coverage. Chapters are organized under the main themes of sensors and sensor fusion Sensor fusion is the combining of sensory data or data derived from sensory data from disparate sources such that the resulting information is in some sense better than would be possible when these sources were used individually. , modeling and control, map building and path planning, decision making and autonomy, and, finally, system integration and applications.
