Abstract:

The purpose of this paper is to discuss and present a technical analysis of the recent advancements in autonomous robots equipped with a manipulator. The autonomous robots include unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV), and unmanned ground vehicle (UGV). A manipulator can make an autonomous robot more adaptable and robust but it can also affect its performance as well. Several issues can arise because of the installation of a manipulator like the robot becoming unstable due to the extra weight, slow convergence, and errors in the path planning. Therefore, this study presents the numerous recent techniques that are in use to counter the aforementioned problems. The methodology and approach used in this paper are to first present the dynamic model of the autonomous robot. Then, the study offers a performance analysis of the specific robot in question. Finally, the paper formulates the limitations of the recently proposed techniques in the form of a table for each vehicle. The key findings of this study are a comprehensive review of the aforesaid techniques and their technical analysis. The unique contribution of this study is to present some of the limitations that these methods have so the researcher can better select the method according to the mission requirement.
