Abstract :
This paper is devoted to straight line paths control of an industrial tricycle vehicle. A simple adapted linearization method is a suitable control strategy. The locomotion coordinates needed in the control law are obtained from a set of proprioceptive sensors. Experimentation results are presented to illustrate the control strategy on paths formed by several straight line segments
