Abstract :
Robotics is a fast developing and exciting field with multiple applications which span from robot manipulators to mobile robots. This paper presents a literature review on wheeled mobile robots. We point out the main considerations to be taken into account when designing this class of robots. The main control problems are recalled as well as the corresponding solutions. Finally, we summarize the most important approaches used to render mobile robots autonomous.
