Robot Control for Home Application

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper deals with controlling from a distance of NXT Mindstorms robot using mainly Matlab environment and a C# programmable interface. For robot control there is used an IIS application. This is very useful when the owner of the robot is not at home, but he has internet access. The owner of the robot can control the robot and find out what is happening at home. On the second hand, the robot is able to choose the moving path inside the house with the path planning application. The robot is equipped with a camera and the third facility of the robot is the spherical bodies recognition. Also there was developed a dedicated software for human faces detection.
