Abstract

In this paper new approach to control of nonholonomic mobile manipulator with skid-steering platform has been presented. For mathematical model of such object, expressed in auxiliary coordinates, control law based on virtual force concept has been introduced. Skid-steering mobile platform is an underactuated control system with rectangular input matrix. In our approach it was assumed that there exists additional control input, giving additional column in input matrix and causing this matrix to be invertible. Because such actuator does not exists in reality, therefore this input was kept equal to zero equivalently. Simulations have proved that such method works properly in unknown terrain and in presence of disturbances.
