The paper focuses on collision-inclusive motion planning for impact-resilient mobile robots. We propose a new deformation recovery and replanning strategy to handle collisions that may occur at run-time. Contrary to collision avoidance methods that generate trajectories only in conservative local space or require collision checking that has high computational cost, our method directly generates (local) trajectories with imposing only waypoint constraints. If a collision occurs, our method then estimates the post-impact state and computes from there an intermediate waypoint to recover from the collision. To achieve so, we develop two novel components: 1) a deformation recovery controller that optimizes the robots states during post-impact recovery phase, and 2) a post-impact trajectory replanner that adjusts the next waypoint with the information from the collision for the robot to pass through and generates a polynomial-based minimum effort trajectory. The proposed strategy is evaluated experimentally with an omni-directional impact-resilient wheeled robot. The robot is designed in house, and it can perceive collisions with the aid of Hall effect sensors embodied between the robots main chassis and a surrounding deflection ring-like structure.

Autonomous missions of small unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are prone to collisions owing to environmental disturbances and localization errors. Consequently, a UAV that can endure collisions and perform recovery control in critical aerial missions
is desirable to prevent loss of the vehicle and/or payload. We address this problem by proposing a novel foldable quadrotor system which can sustain collisions and recover safely. The quadrotor is designed with integrated mechanical compliance using a torsional spring such that the impact time is increased and the net impact force on the main body is decreased. The post-collision dynamics is analysed and a recovery controller is proposed which stabilizes the system to a hovering location without additional collisions. Flight test results on the proposed and a conventional quadrotor demonstrate that for the former, integrated spring-damper characteristics reduce the rebound velocity and lead to simple recovery control algorithms in the event of unintended collisions as compared to a rigid quadrotor of the same dimension.
Collision detection and recovery for aerial robots remain a challenge because of the limited space for sensors and local stability of the flight controller. We introduce a novel collision-resilient quadrotor that features a compliant arm design to en
able free flight while allowing for one passive degree of freedom to absorb shocks. We further propose a novel collision detection and characterization method based on Hall sensors, as well as a new recovery control method to generate and track a smooth trajectory after a collision occurs. Experimental results demonstrate that the robot can detect and recover from high-speed collisions with various obstacles such as walls and poles. Moreover, it can survive collisions that are hard to detect with existing methods based on IMU data and contact models, for example, when colliding with unstructured surfaces, or being hit by a moving obstacle while hovering.
We present a navigation system that combines ideas from hierarchical planning and machine learning. The system uses a traditional global planner to compute optimal paths towards a goal, and a deep local trajectory planner and velocity controller to c
ompute motion commands. The latter components of the system adjust the behavior of the robot through attention mechanisms such that it moves towards the goal, avoids obstacles, and respects the space of nearby pedestrians. Both the structure of the proposed deep models and the use of attention mechanisms make the systems execution interpretable. Our simulation experiments suggest that the proposed architecture outperforms baselines that try to map global plan information and sensor data directly to velocity commands. In comparison to a hand-designed traditional navigation system, the proposed approach showed more consistent performance.
The objective of this paper is to present a systematic review of existing sensor-based control methodologies for applications that involve direct interaction between humans and robots, in the form of either physical collaboration or safe coexistence.
To this end, we first introduce the basic formulation of the sensor-servo problem, then present the most common approaches: vision-based, touch-based, audio-based, and distance-based control. Afterwards, we discuss and formalize the methods that integrate heterogeneous sensors at the control level. The surveyed body of literature is classified according to the type of sensor, to the way multiple measurements are combined, and to the target objectives and applications. Finally, we discuss open problems, potential applications, and future research directions.
Path planning and collision avoidance are challenging in complex and highly variable environments due to the limited horizon of events. In literature, there are multiple model- and learning-based approaches that require significant computational reso
urces to be effectively deployed and they may have limited generality. We propose a planning algorithm based on a globally stable passive controller that can plan smooth trajectories using limited computational resources in challenging environmental conditions. The architecture combines the recently proposed fractal impedance controller with elastic bands and regions of finite time invariance. As the method is based on an impedance controller, it can also be used directly as a force/torque controller. We validated our method in simulation to analyse the ability of interactive navigation in challenging concave domains via the issuing of via-points, and its robustness to low bandwidth feedback. A swarm simulation using 11 agents validated the scalability of the proposed method. We have performed hardware experiments on a holonomic wheeled platform validating smoothness and robustness of interaction with dynamic agents (i.e., humans and robots). The computational complexity of the proposed local planner enables deployment with low-power micro-controllers lowering the energy consumption compared to other methods that rely upon numeric optimisation.
