In this paper, we present two robust trajectory-tracking controllers for a differentially driven two-wheeled mobile robot using its kinematic and dynamic model in the presence of slip. The structure of the differential flatness-based controller, which is an integrated framework for planning and control, is extended in this paper to account for slip disturbances by adding a corrective control term. Simulation results for both kinematic and dynamic controllers are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the robust controllers. Experiments with the kinematic controller were conducted to validate the performance of the robust controller. The simulation and experimental results show that the robust controllers are very effective in the presence of slip.

This paper presents the patented mechanical concept for steering and level control of a mobile robot equipped with four driving units and the methods that lead to the development of this mechatronic system. The mobile robot exhibits excellent maneuverability and considerable advantages when moving in difficult environments such as rough landscapes. The paper discusses a refined approach to develop mechatronic systems which is based on the well-known V-model. The refined approach allows a conscious planning and control of a mechatronic design process.
