An intelligent environmental monitoring system based on autonomous mobile robot

摘要

Monitoring indoor environmental state of large communication rooms, warehouses and power stations is an important task. Based on mobile robotics, we have developed an intelligent environmental monitoring system. In this system, a mobile robot carrying a number of sensors autonomously navigates and dynamically sample the environmental data including the temperature, humidity and airflow velocity. The system outputs the environmental parameters in appropriate modes such as clouds. In this paper, we present the development of this monitoring system, its working principle and application effectiveness. It has been shown how a mobile robot can be used to as a novel application in industry environments.
