This paper describes an RFID and GPS integrated navigation system, Smart-Robot (SR) for the visually impaired. The SR uses RFID and GPS based localization while operating indoor and outdoor respectively. The portable terminal unit is an embedded system equipped with an RFID reader, GPS, and analog compass as input devices to obtain location and orientation. The SR can guide the user to a predefined...
Autonomous vehicles can significantly improve efficiency and safety in applications ranging from warfare to transportation. However, to supply those benefits they must be shown to operate effectively, safely, and reliably in a wide range of terrains and conditions. Most major successes with autonomous vehicles have been limited to somewhat structured environments. We are interested in autonomous vehicles...
In many mobile robot application, navigation is a critical issues. This paper deals with the localization and building problem in an unknown indoor environment. We propose an exploration based on the use of the sensorial data provided by one CCD camera and odometer system. In this paper, the first part of our study is linked to the problem of Vehicle Model and the algorithm model. The second part...
