Analyzing and designing sound source localization method using a mobile robot as the media
This thesis project is intended to analyze and design a sound source localization system by using a mobile robot as the media. The system uses 2 microphones as the sensors, Arduino Duemilanove board with ATMega328p as the microprocessor, two permanent magnet DC motors as the actuators for the mobile robot and a servo motor as the actuators to rotate the webcam directing to the location of the sound source, and a laptop/PC as the media to do the simulation. In order to achieve the objective of finding the position of a specific sound source, the beamforming technique is applied on the system. Then after the location of the sound source has been detected and determined, either the mobile robot will adjust its position according to the direction of the sound source or the webcam will rotate in the direction of the incoming sound simulating the use of this system in a video conference. The integrated system has been tested and it operates superbly in a proper way according to the initial purpose of the thesis.
