Appendix 16,Our first task mapping and navigation,The general problem of mobile robot navigation has to answer three questions: “Where am I?.” “Where am I going?,” “How should I get there?.” Our project will focus on how to achieve these t

3、hree main questions using a mobile robot system and at the same time map its surroundings. In order to answer the first and most fundamental question: “Where am I?,” the system requires some sort of build-in sensing equipments to position itself.,Positioning System,Most common positioning system in

4、robotic divides into two categories: relative and absolute position measurements and the brief description shown below:The Relative Position Measurements Uses internal sensor to measure its distant traveled relative to the previous position. The advantage is that its totally self-contained and does

5、not need any external system support to locate its position. On the other hand, its position error grows without bound unless and independent reference is used periodically to reduce the error. Two types of sensory system shown below are typically used for relative position measurement.,relative pos

6、ition measurement.,Two types of sensory system shown below are typically used for relative position measurement.Odometry This method uses encoders to measure wheel rotation and/or steering orientation. Inertial Navigation This method uses gyroscopes and accelerometers to measure rate of rotation and

7、 acceleration.,Absolute Position Measurements,The Absolute Position Measurements is using a “known” external environment to locate its absolute position in the map given like the global positioning system (GPS). The advantage is that it can navigate through the environment accurately. The disadvanta

8、ge is that:the location of source signal must be known or a detailed map of the environment must be given. There are few different types of system is using the absolute position measurement which are shown below,Active Beacons The robot computes its position from measuring the direction of incidence

9、 of three or more actively transmitted beacons. The transmitting signal could be light or radio frequencies.Artificial / Natural Landmark Recognition The robot identifies the landmark (artificial or natural) with a recognizable feature This feature is preset in the system to position itself in the k

10、nown map.Model Matching it is a complex matching system which identifies its surroundings with its internal map and world model of the environment to estimate its position. This is a more high level system It can: improve global maps based on the new sensory observations in a dynamic environment Int

11、egrate local maps into the global map to cover previously unexplored areas.,Absolute Position Measurements,Project Goal,Build a mobile robot using some of the sensory and compute method described previously to perform desired tasks. In this project we focus on two main goals:obstacle avoidance envir

12、onment mapping. The robot needs to be able to:navigate at an unknown environment, stop when there is an obstacle in the desire path, avoid the obstacle by changing route, map the environment without outside influence.,The NXT programmable microcomputer, so called the Brick. It has an Atmel 32-bit AR

13、M7 processor with 256KB Flash memory, 64KB RAM, and a speed of 48 MHz. The Brick also come four sensor inputs, three motor outputs connection, USB connection, LCD display with four bottoms controller, a loudspeaker, and Bluetooth capability.,Limited system capability,The Servo Motor it uses a built-

14、in incremental optical encoder to precisely control the motors output. The NXT allows to specify the rotating degree with an accurate of one degree, the rotating revolution, or run time at different output powers. The user can also synchronize between two motors and control using other internal read

15、ings.,Our use of motors,The Ultrasonic Sensor as described previously allows the robot to measure distances to its surroundings and avoid obstacles. The NXT ultrasonic sensor has a range of 255 cm and accuracy within 3 cm.,Our use of sensors,Programming in NXC,The most common C like compiler for NXT

16、 are RobotC and NXC (Not eXactly C). Since the RobotC requires license to use, the project robot was coded in NXC, which is an open source compilerThe NXT has a bytecode interpreter, which can be used to execute programs. The NXC compiler translates a source program into NXT bytecodes, which can the

17、n be executed on the target itself. Although the preprocessor and control structures of NXC are very similar to C, NXC is not a general-purpose programming language, and there are many restrictions that stem from limitations of the NXT bytecode interpreter. The lexical rules of the compiler and the

18、NXT input/output reading commands can be found at the “NXC Guide”.,NXC compiler interface,Project Code,The project code was written based on the concept of answering the three fundamental questions Where am I, Where am I going, and How should I get there and meeting the project goal at the same time

19、. The answer for those questions would be : “The robot is sitting on a x,y coordinates which start with 0,0 and always moving forward with tracking of orientation and distance on the best path which was decided after obstacles detection.”,Software,Calibration function “Distant_Check”,Calibration fun

Pick direction with longer path and rotate the robot 45 degree to that direction then continue straight if no obstacle found. *The program s
