Abstract
In this paper, the self-positioning problem of a mobile robot is investigated for autonomous navigation. A general self-positioning problem is formulated using vision and ideal point guide-marks, and the minimal number of point guide-marks is suggested to determine the position and orientation of mobile robot in case of a single or multiple cameras system at different locations. For a practical application, a simple self-positioning algorithm is proposed using a single camera with the triple point guide-marks or its equivalence of a single pattern with three feature points, whose positions are known in a given world map. It is experimentally shown that the proposed triple point guidemarks system works well using mobile robot HERO-I equipped a single camera in laboratory environment.
