In this paper, a new system is presented to manage the elevator operations. A Wi-Fi socket is established to connect with the ADAM module for calling the elevator and requesting the destination floor. This technique does not provide any feedback on the elevator's door status or its current floor which in some situations can make the robot losing its way to the destination. Computer vision can be utilized...
Over the last years, growing numbers of mobile robots have been employed for transportation tasks in indoor laboratories. In this paper, a new hybrid path planning strategy with its related systems is presented for multi-floor mobile robot transportation in life science laboratories. The presented method meets the requirements of life science laboratories, which has the innovative contents as follows:...
A new robust method is developed for elevator operation in semi-outdoor environment for mobile robot transportation systems in life science laboratories. Elevator operation includes the entry button detection, floor button recognition, and reading of current floor information. Different techniques have been employed for the elevator operation including HSL color representation, adaptive binary threshold...
In this paper, a new multi-floor navigating method is proposed for the intelligent mobile robot transportation in life science laboratories. The proposed method includes two technical solutions as follows: (a) a solution is presented to build a multi-floor map for the mobile robots based on the ceiling landmarks and the robot on-board StarGazer sensors. All the installed ceiling landmarks are given...
