Indoor Navigation and Guidance of an Autonomous Robot Vehicle by Using Wireless (ZigBee) Cummunication

Abstract:

In this work, a novel approach for navigation and guidance of a duo cycle autonomous robot vehicle by using ZigBee wireless control is presented. For navigation the angular position and location of the vehicle is measured intermittent by means of an electronic compass and a linear position encoder. Both measured values are then compared through a PC with the reference points of a certain trajectory, so that a given path can be followed by the vehicle autonomously. Besides navigation a self developed algorithm is integrated to the system control for possible obstacle avoidance and optimal path finding. The results of experimental testing showed the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
