Abstract

This work proposes a method for continuous navigation and path planning to avoid obstacles for both indoor and outdoor application. The navigating robot creates 2D map of the traversed area. To avoid collision with obstacles, the robot uses range measurement sensors. The Robot autonomously moves around the unexplored environment safely, detects obstacles through radar vision, collects data, transmits data through wireless module to host computer where the host computer detects suitable path for traversal and navigates the robot from a remote location. Simultaneously, the host computer constructs a 2D map and planes navigation from the field robots collected data.
