    The increasing complexity of mathematical models developed as part of the recent advancements in autonomous mobility platforms has led to an escalation in uncertainty. Despite the intricate nature of such models, the detection, decision, and control methods for autonomous mobility path tracking remain critical. This study aims to achieve path tracking based on pixel-based control errors without parameters in the mathematical model. The proposed approach entails deriving control errors from a multi-particle filter based on a camera, estimating the error dynamics coefficients through a recursive least squares (RLS) approach, and using the sliding mode approach and weighted injection to formulate a cost function that leverages the estimated coefficients and control errors. The resultant adaptive steering control expedites the convergence of control errors towards zero by determining the magnitude of the injection variable based on the control errors and the finite-time convergence condition. The efficacy of the proposed approach is evaluated through an S-curved and elliptical path using autonomous mobility equipped with a single steering and driving module. The results demonstrate the capability of the approach to reasonably track target paths through driving and steering control facilitated by a multi-particle filter and a lidar-based obstacle detection system.
