Robot-Elevator Interaction Through IoT Devices for Autonomous Robot Multi-Floor Transition

摘要

Navigating between floors in a building poses a traditional challenge for robots, often involving manual efforts or complex solutions. This paper addresses the inherent problems focusing on Autonomous Mobile Robots. Presented here is an innovative method for automating conveyor systems, specifically elevators, to facilitate the seamless integration of AMRs into various operations. The proposed robot-elevator integration so-lution employs a flexible system and an loT actuator kit that easily integrates with existing elevators, ensuring compatibility with the system already in place. Utilizing imaging sensors and machine learning for real-time object recognition, the system autonomously responds to AMRs in different zones. Proof-of-concept results demonstrate the feasibility and advantages of the proposed approach in terms of safety and operational efficiency.
