To improve the navigation efficiency and precision of the omni-directional mobile manipulator(ODMM)
the ultrasonic-absolute-positioning strategy is proposed
where the move-to-goal behavior and avoid-obstacle behavior based on absolute positioning are involved. Compared with the conventional navigation strategies
the strategy is endowed with the superiorities
such as instant accurate locality
posture and speed adjusting. Then the fusing single redundant information(FSRI)method is adopted to improve the precision of the ultrasonic-absolute-positioning
and an ODMM navigation strategy based on FSRI method absolute positioning is presented. The experimental and simulation results confirm the validity of the navigation strategy.
