摘要:To improve the energy efficiency of mobile robots and increase their time of operation, a comprehensive energy model is needed. Having such a model requires a lot of complex analysis and design time. There has been a lot of research into optimizing the power consumption of mobile robots but have not benefited from the advantages of languages to model complex cyber-physical systems. In this work, we used the Simscape ™ MATLAB ® environment to simplify and speed up the design of an energy consumption model of a differential drive mobile robot. We also estimated the energy consumption of the mobile in a different path tracking scenario. Our results show that is possible to obtain a good accuracy of path following with acceptable energy consumption.
