Designing and constructing a mobile robot navigation system
This project is intended to design and to construct a mobile robot system capable of determining its position and orientation relative to the reference objects in a certain environment. To achieve that capability the mobile robot uses laser targeting system to find the reference objects and then calculate the distance to that reference by using the ultrasonic range finder. This reference is actually a distinctive landmark which is designed to be detected by the mobile robot as a known reference position. Bluetooth wireless communication system will be used by the mobile robot to get the position of the reference objects, to receive order to reach new destination and to transmit current position of the mobile robot to the monitoring and controlling center. The mobile robot will be driven by two DC motors integrated with optical encoders to calculate the displacement. Another DC motor is used to rotate the laser targeting system and the ultrasonic range finder, electronic compass is also used to establish the orientation of the robot, the laser, and the ultrasonic sensor.
