プラグインドッキングにおけるドッキング時間の短縮化に関する研究

抄録

Recently, Robots are used in various fields. Autonomous mobile robots are one of robots that are active in society. Theses robot needs to charge with dedicated docking stations. This charging method have disadvantages in that robot’s range of motion is limited, in that putting stations take cost and so on. Therefore, we propose a new charging method, “Plugin-docking system”. But present plugin-docking has a low success rate in docking into a wall outlet. In addition, it takes a long time to finish docking. Therefore, in this research, I modified the motion of the robot to enable docking into a wall outlet, which requires less docking time.
