針對多車整合控制系統,本論文使用一追隨控制系統,只要知道前導車與跟隨車間的若干資訊,即可利用追隨控制數學模型來推算出相對應的控制量,藉此達到在兩車間維持一定的固定距離及固定角度,來完成多車整合控制的目的。在前導車資訊判別上,本文是利用 CMOS 影像感測模組配合自製的LED燈組,使用影像面積量測的方法,可推算出前導車與跟隨車間的相對距離及位置。此方法並不需要複雜的圖形辨識演算法,只利用一些公式就可以推算出相對距離、相對角度及相對車頭角,再利用本文提到的數學控制模型,讓跟隨車得以平滑地追隨移動中的前導車,並根據所設定的條件來完成多車隊形控制的期望,最後,並以實際實驗來證明本文內容之可行性
In respect of the multiple mobile vehicles control system, this thesis utilizes a following control system which can help to maintain a certain distance and fixed angle between two sequent cars, and therefore achieve the purpose of multi-vehicle integrated control. As long as some pieces of information regarding the preceding car and following car are obtained, this following control mathematical model can calculate the relative control volume. For identifying the information of preceding car, this thesis utilizes CMOS image sensor module, collocated with self-made LED lights, to calculate the relative distance and position by image-based measuring. This method only utilizes some formulas to calculate the relative distance, relative angle and relative head angle instead of any sophisticated pattern recognition approach. Furthermore, the mentioned mathematical control model can let the following car smoothly pursue after the preceding car in moving, and achieve the expectation of multi-vehicle formation control in accordance with the given conditions. Finally, the feasibility of contents in this thesis will be proved through practical experiments.
