摘要: U-CAT is a highly maneuverable biomimetic four-fin underwater robot for operating in confined spaces. Because of its novel mechanical design and specialized purpose, the traditional autonomous control methods are not directly applicable on U-CAT. This paper proposes modular architecture that can be adopted different application scenarios. Within this framework, we implement test several 2-degree-of-freedom (DOF) controllers discuss results. Furthermore, describe an actuation coupling method by prioritizing selection DOF with fuzzy membership functions demonstrate approach 3-DOF control. The results show proposed prioritization helps us to improve tracking both case human loop automatic Finally, long-duration field experiments realistic environmental conditions.
