Design and laboratory implementation of autonomous optimal motion planning for non-holonomic planetary rovers

This work investigates the challenge of designing and implementing minimum-time trajectories for an autonomous, non-holonomic, planetary rover. The optimal trajectories were implemented at the Control and Optimization Laboratories with a TRAXXAS remote controlled vehicle modified to enable autonomou...
