Grobal position and posture control of a two-wheeled mobile robot using a discontinuous homogeneous control

This paper focuses on the problem of global stabilization of a two-wheeled mobile robot. We propose a global exponentially stabilizing controller for a two-wheel mobile robot based on the discontinuous finite-time homogeneous controller for chained systems. Moreover, we demonstrate the effectiveness of proposed method through an experiment using a "Khepera 2" mobile robot
