Problem 2:
Fig. 2 shows a differential drive mobile robot having a pair of powered wheels and a frictionless caster. The radius of the wheels is r=3cm, while the distance between the two wheels is 2d=20cm. The angular velocity of the right and left wheels are R and L respectively. Each powered wheel is equipped with a shaft encoder that measures the angular velocity of the wheel.
a) Provide the Jacobian matrix J that relates the wheels' angular velocities to the linear and angular velocities of the robot with respect to the inertial frame {s}. I.e., provide J in p=[xy]=J[LR]
b) A camera is positioned with respect to the inertial frame {s} as shown in Fig. 3. Compute the Jacobian matrix Jc that relates the wheels' angular velocities to the linear and angular velocities of the robot with respect to the camera frame {c}. I.e., compute Jc in pc=[xcycc]=Jc[LR]. A symbolic expression of the solution suffices.
