Abstract

This paper presents position identification, a reliable way to identify the current location of the robot using image processing, which can effectively improve the avoid collisions of obstruction with a Light Detection And Ranging (LiDAR) sensor for an autonomous mobile robot. In order to further improve positioning accuracy. The robot under consideration has five functions. Firstly, to overcome the insufficient accuracy of posture when a robot turns, a mobile robot integrated scheme has been investigated for the mobile robots with omni-wheels which can make fixed point turning, so that the robot position remains fixed in the process of changing the direction of motion. Secondly, an additional sensor has been used to detect the object in front of the mobile robot to improve the system that will have the ability to move obstacle avoidance. Thirdly, an algorithm is proposed to feasibly plan the travelling path and avoid obstructing from its initial posture to the destination in an unknown environment. Fourthly, in order to improve the real time performance, a wireless network is more flexible than a cable that allows mobile robots to move freely without any failure. Finally, a possible improvement is to additionally more than one camera, which usually covers a larger area around the robot.
