Development of IoT-enabled Mobile Robotic System for Monitoring

摘要

Robotics has always been demanding rapid and faster development in different applications like automobiles, material handling, power plant, coal mines, inspection, agriculture, defense, biomedical, and so on where controlling the robots is a major challenge which can be provided the remote operation through wirelessly. Internet-of-Things (IoT) technology has been introduced for robotic applications which can facilitate the transferring of data almost without the intervention of human-to-machine-interface (HMI) or human-to-computer interaction via a wireless communication approach. In this paper, an IoT-enabled mobile robot is designed for proving the robot's functionality which provides the user with all the necessary controls in mobile android phones using IoT. A robotic system is developed and the data visualization of gasses content and air quality testing within the working environment have been carried out where the use of sensors is essential for finding and detecting certain factors within the working environment. A mobile app is developed using a web application by which the different gasses content and air quality can be monitored in various industrial applications. This kind of application demands for use of an IoT cloud for storing data in futuristic robotic applications.
