Development and implementation of navigation algorithm for mobile robot
Abstract : The autonomous navigation ability and road following precision require two skills, the obstacle avoidance skill and localization and map following skill. In this thesis a mobile robot navigation system is designed. The robot is able to navigate safely and successfully in an unstructured environment relying only on uncalibrated vision camera as its only mean of perception. For obstacle avoidance, the proposed algorithm makes use of the strong points in the floor plane extraction algorithm in detecting obstacles.
