Trajectory Control of Designed Experimental Mobile Robot
1-5.Views:319Due to advancing technology; nowadays mobile robot applications in hospitals have been increased. For that reason, it is very important and necessary to analyze the trajectory of such helping robotic system. However; there are many types of mobile robots have been utilized in hospital applications such as helping nurses. In this simulation study; a designed and controlled mobile robot was controlled by using standard feedback controllers. On the other hand, the robot was also tested with disturbances of ground surface roughness. The simulation results were improved that standard PID controller has superior performance to overcome surface roughness of the robot trajectory.

Intelligent Space Environment for Ethorobotics
1-5.Views:126This paper presents a setup using a mobile robot agent in an intelligent space. The proposed concept based on a holonomic driving system mount on the robot. Due to the driving system different moving behaviours and path planning algorithms can be tested. To examine the robot movements and provide the needed support the robot agent was placed in a Motion capture system. The special environment around the robot is a motion track system which can track the movements of agents in its space via markers.

Android Based Autonomous Mobile Robot
1-4.Views:139The spreading of mobile robots is getting more significant nowadays. This is due to their ability to perform tasks that are dangerous, uncomfortable or impossible to people. The mobile robot must be endowed with a wide variety of sensors (cameras, microphones, proximity sensors, etc.) and processing units that makes them able to navigate in their environment. This generally carried out with unique, small series produced and thus expensive equipment. This paper describes the concept of a mobile robot with a control unit integrating the processing and the main sensor functionalities into one mass produced device, an Android smartphone. The robot is able to perform tasks such as tracking colored objects or human faces and orient itself. In the meantime, it avoids obstacles and keeps the distance between the target and itself. It is able to verbally communicate wit.

Navigation of Differential Drive Mobile Robot on Predefined, Software Designed Path
1-5.Views:161This paper will be presenting the process of mobile robot movement controlling, from the task of collecting sensor data until the problem of controlling data to the servo motor controllers. In details, the first part will show the mechanism of converting CAD data to routes, and the processing of the navigation data read from the sensors and calculated from former controlling commands. The second part will explain the processing of navigation data, the applying of the actual robot position and orientation on the predefined virtual path and the production of the controller's input variables. The Fuzzy controller and the rule base will be introduced in the third part.

ROS OS Based Environment Mapping of Cyber Physical System Lab by Depth Sensor
1-6Views:215The 21st century is a century of Robotics and thus the appearance of robots in the industries made the “Industrial Revolution 4.0” in which we can control and analyse the system using HMI’s or wirelessly over network and it’s a great example of industry 4.0 component. Nowadays robots are very important part of industry’s processing unit as they have the tendency to work 24*7 thus increases the efficiency of processing and production unit.
In our project a depth sensor (Microsoft’s Xbox Kinect) is mounted on a mobile robot whose main task is to map our Cyber Physical System Lab in 3-Dimensional which uses a ROS OS software installed on linux machine.
The robot will use a Simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) process to map an environment while currently generating an estimate for the location of the Robot.

Odometry and Teleoperation Application using NI Robotics
1-5.Views:105This document is intended to present the progress in developing a remotely operated mobile robot that can feedback information related to its position. The equipment used for the robot frame, communication and feedback technology are used are just one alternative of achieving the teleoperation and feedback tasks, and are not to be taken as the standard or the only way of achieving the objectives. The application was programmed using LabVIEW for the remote operation of the robot, for obtaining video streaming we have used two alternatives one being a standard IP camera and the other using a USB WebCam connected to a Raspberry Pi. Positioning feedback was determined from the information provided by the two motor encoders mounted on the DC motors.
