移動ロボットの省エネルギー運転手法の研究

抄録

Research aimed at energy conservation was developed as a single device. Although research on mobile robots has been done a lot, research and development focusing on energy conservation has not been done much. If it is an autonomous mobile robot, energy saving can be realized in the exercise plan. Therefore, in order to make energy saving of the mobile robot possible, we have designed and manufactured hardware capable of mechanical and electrical energy saving operation. In addition, energy saving can be realized by combining exercise planning, for example, dedicated software based on navigation and exercise control. In this paper, we calculate the efficiency using a simple DC motor model and estimated the efficiency of the conventional independent drive steering module and the differential drive steering module. As a simple estimate, comparison was made between the conventional independent steering module and the differential drive steering module using the proposed differential mechanism. The results are reported because the possibility of improving efficiency is suggested for the differential driven steering module using the proposed differential mechanism.
