A dynamical extension that makes possible the integration of a kinematic controller and a torque controller for nonholonomic mobile robots is presented. A combined kinematic/torque control law is developed using backstepping and asymptotic stability is guaranteed by Lyapunov theory. Moreover, this control algorithm can be applied to the three basic nonholonomic navigation problems: tracking a reference trajectory, path following and stabilization about a desired posture. A general structure for controlling a mobile robot results that can accommodate different control techniques ranging from a conventional computed-torque controller, when all dynamics are known, to adaptive controllers.
