Abstract

This paper surveys the different control approaches for autonomous mobile manipulators (traditional control approaches and multi-agent heuristic-based control approaches), and focuses mainly on multi-agent fuzzy-based approaches. Directions are discussed and properties of the state-of-the-art in control approaches are classified and compared depending on the techniques used for controlling the robots. The conclusion of the paper presents our point of view about the current state of designing multi-agent fuzzy-based control approaches for such autonomous robots.
