Design of RFID Based Robot System for Automatic Search of Books in Libraries

Abstract:

In this paper, a novel mobile robot system for searching books automatically in libraries is designed based on the radio frequency identification (RFID) and singlechip programming techniques. Recently, the barcode identification is frequently used in libraries. However, because of its unique advantages of RFID technology and its application in the intelligent robots will be able to achieve high-efficient automatic search of books. RFID has the advantages of large information storage and long identification distance etc., thus application in library management information system has great development potential. By using RFID long-distance identification ability combined with the close accurate positioning technologies, a mobile robot for automatic search of books in libraries is designed, which can effectively improve the book search efficiency, saves the massive cost and improve the library informatization level.
