A New Mobile Robot Guidance System Using Optical Reflectors

摘要

We present a new guidance system using optical reflectors as landmarks. The advantages of using the reflectors are; (1) easy to identify, (2) inexpensive, (3) easy to set up, and (4) inconspicuous to human. We also present a method to generate and follow smooth paths between the discrete landmarks, and to control a mobile robot in real-time for a smooth and non-stop motion.
