This paper aims to design and implement the multiple adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (MANFIS) architecture-based sensor-actuator (motor) control technique for mobile robot navigation in different two-dimensional environments with the presence of static and moving obstacles.
The three infrared range sensors have been mounted on the front, left and right side of the robot, which reads the forward, left forward and right forward static and dynamic obstacles in the environment. This sensor data information is fed as inputs into the MANFIS architecture to generate appropriate speed control commands for right and left motors of the robot. In this study, we have taken one assumption for moving obstacle avoidance in different scenarios the speed of the mobile robot is at least greater than or equal to the speed of moving obstacles and goal.
Graphical simulations have designed through MATLAB and virtual robot experimentation platform (V-REP) software and experiments have been done on Arduino MEGA 2560 microcontroller-based mobile robot. Simulation and experimental studies demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed MANFIS architecture.
This paper designs and implements MANFIS architecture for mobile robot navigation between a static and moving obstacle in different simulation and experimental environments. Also, the authors have compared this developed architecture to the other navigational technique and found that our developed architecture provided better results in terms of path length in the same environment.
