The commercially available battery management and mission scheduling systems for fleets
of autonomous mobile robots use different algorithms to calculate the current state of charge …

Battery management of mobile robots is an issue that has not been a strong focus of
attention and is usually addressed by the simple use of battery thresholds. One of the main …

This paper presents a hierarchical approach for estimating the mission feasibility, ie, the
probability of mission completion (PoMC), for mobile robotic systems operating in stochastic …

Mobile robots are being increasingly deployed in fields where human intervention is
deemed risky. However, in doing so, one of the prime concern is to prevent complete battery …

Path planning strategies exist today for producing trajectories in Unmanned ground vehicles
(UGV) that incorporate various navigation concerns, such as 3D navigation, obstacle …

Battery management of mobile robots has not been a strong focus of attention and is usually
addressed by the simple use of battery thresholds. As a result decision of redirection to a …

We have addressed the issue of recharging a group of wheeled autonomous worker robots
in their environment without attending a predefined charging station. For this purpose, a …

The allocation of tasks to Autonomous Mobile Robots in a production setting in combination
with the most efficient parking and charging processes are the focus of this paper. This study …

The daily working hours of mobile robots are limited primarily by battery life. Most systems
use a combination of thresholds and fixed periods to decide when to charge. This produces …

Due to limited power onboard, a significant factor for success of distributed teams of robots is
energy-awareness. The ability to predict when power will be depleted beyond a certain point …
