PhD Thesis: Mechatronic Design Techniques for Motion Control Systems of a Three-Wheeled Mobile Platform Using an Energy Performance Index

Conducted research on a novel real-time control algorithm for a nonlinear robotic system (three-wheeled mobile platform). The project aimed to address challenges in energy-efficient motion control and advanced system dynamics.

The proposed control algorithm was implemented using advanced mechatronic design techniques, including virtual prototyping, Hardware-in-the-Loop Simulation (HILS), and rapid prototyping directly on a custom-built robot system. The robot, a three-wheeled mobile platform, was specifically designed and constructed for research purposes.

Experimental validation demonstrated the superior performance of the proposed motion control algorithm. Tests confirmed the feasibility of optimizing the energy efficiency of the three-wheeled mobile platform by employing mechatronic integration techniques and applying corrective velocity adjustments.

This research highlights that energy optimization in surveillance systems using mobile platforms can be achieved through strategic mechatronics integration, advancing the field of motion control and energy-aware robotics.
