Dr. Olivares Mendez received the Diploma in Computer Science Engineering in 2006 from the University of Malaga (UMA), Spain, and received the M.Sc. degree in Robotics and Automation and PhD degree in Robotics and Automation from the Industrial Engineering Faculty at the Technical University of Madrid (UPM), Spain, in 2009 and 2013, respectively. He got the Best PhD Thesis award of 2013 by the European Society for Fuzzy Logic and Technology (EUSFLAT). In May 2013 he joined the Interdisciplinary Center for Security Reliability and Trust (SnT) at the University of Luxembourg (Uni.Lu), as Associate Researcher in the Automation & Robotics Research Group. In December 2016 he becomes Research Scientist and major responsible of the research activities on mobiles robotics in the Automation & Robotics Research Group at the SnT-University of Luxembourg.

Since 2013, Dr. Olivares Mendez is acting as Associate Editor for Journal of Intelligent & Robotic Systems (JINT). In 2015, he was selected to be Reviewer Editor for the Robotic Control Systems, part of the journal(s) Frontiers in Robotics and AI. He has been a member of the organizing committee of the Brain Inspired Cognitive Systems (BICS) 2010 conference in Madrid, Spain, serving as Local Arrangement Chair. He was the Financial Chair of the IEEE International Conference on Emerging Technologies and Factory Automation 2015 in Luxembourg and participated as member of the program committee in numerous renowned international scientific conferences in robotics and control. The main research interests of Dr. Olivares Mendez are on unmanned aerial systems, computer vision, sensor fusion, vision-based control, soft-computing control techniques and robotics and automation.

Here is available all the software developed during my research works.

 

MOFS-ROS

A Robotics Operative System (ROS) package to develop control system approaches based on Fuzzy Logic. This package is based on the C++ library called Miguel Olivares' Fuzzy Software (MOFS), that was used in several works in the past (publications between 2007 and 2013).

please contact me by email: miguel.olivaresmendez@uni.lu

 

ARUCO_ROS

A ROS package to process images from the virtual environment of V-REP or from a real camera using an Augmented Reality (AR) code detection. This package is based on the C++ library ArUco, developed by R. Muñoz-Salinas.

please contact me by email: miguel.olivaresmendez@uni.lu

 

V-REP Quadrotor model

The Virtual Robot Experimental Platform (V-REP) is a powerful tool for robotics tests. It has the option to communicate with ROS. Here is the model of a virtual quadrotor modified to be commanded by velocity commands, to send the onboard camera images to ROS and to receive the control commands.

 

SnT_ardrone_connection

Here is the ROS package used to communicate by WiFi connection with the AR.Drone (parrot), getting the onboard camera image and sending the control commands. This software is based on the tum_ardrone ROS package.

 

Vision Control System

This is a ROS package to put across the information extracted from the image processing algorithm (done by the ARUCO_ROS package) to the developed control system (done by the MOFS-ROS package), and also to send the control system output to the virtual or real quadrotor. This package also include another program to run to send basic commands to the real AR.Drone, like take off, land, and the emergency stop. This program also allow to select the specific ARUCO marker to be detected and used for the control of the UAV.

Title: Soft-Computing Based Visual Control for Unmanned Vehicles

Abstract:

The aim of this Thesis is to exploit the use of Soft Computing to control
unmanned vehicles using vision. This works goes beyond the typical control
systems used in highly controlled environments, by demonstrating the power
of the Fuzzy Logic Controllers (FLCs) to command aerial and ground vehicles
in a sort of different tasks. A huge amount of real tests are presented in which
the implemented Fuzzy controllers manage a visual pan and tilt platform, a
helicopter, a commercial car and two different types of quadcopters. The use of
the Cross-Entropy method to optimize the behavior of these controllers is also
shown.
All the visual servoing controllers presented in this Thesis were implemented
using the self-developed software tool called MOFS (Miguel Olivares’ Fuzzy
Software). Different visual algorithms were used to acquire the information
of the surrounding environment of the vehicles. The CamShift, homography
decomposition, and augmented reality mark detection among others. This visual
information was used as input of the Fuzzy controllers to manage the vehicle to
do different autonomous tasks.
The steering wheel of a commercial car was controlled to implement a
driverless vehicle for inner-city tests. Long distance of more than 6 km was
covered without driver in a close circuit using a vision line following algorithm.
The limited field of view (50 30 cm) of the system was not an impediment to
reach a top speed of 48km/h and guide the vehicle inside low radius curves.
Static and moving objects like cars were tracking from an unmanned
helicopter controlling an on board pan and tilt visual platform. A full control of
altitude, lateral and forward movements was implemented for an auto-landing
task of a helicopter. An implementation of pitch and heading controllers were
used to command a quadrotor for object following task. The heading was also
controlled for See and Avoid task with this type of UAVs.
The Cross-Entropy optimization method is not wide used for control in the
literature. This Thesis presents the way to optimize the gains, membership
function sets’ position and size and the rules’ weight to improve the behavior of
a Fuzzy controller. This optimization process was done using ROS and Matlab
Simulink to obtain better results for See and Avoid tests for UAVs.
This Thesis demonstrates that the Fuzzy Logic Controllers are widely capable
to command free-model systems in high disturbance environments with a
low cost sensor. The noisy effects of illumination changes and the high uncertain
of the visual detection were manage in a gentle way by this Soft Computing
technique to approach different tasks with different aerial and ground vehicles.
