Abstract

This paper is concerned with constructing a prototype intelligent home environment for home service robot. In this environment, multi-pattern information can be represented by some intelligent artificial marks. Light-packs service robots can provide reliable and intelligent service by interacting with the environment through the wireless sensor networks. The intelligent space consists the following main components: smart devices with intelligent artificial mark; home server that connects the smart device and maintains the information through wireless sensor network; and the service robot that perform tasks in collaboration with the environment. In this paper, the multi-pattern information model is built, the construction of wireless sensor networks is presented, the smart and agilely home service is introduced. Fi- nally, the future direction of intelligent space system is discussed.

Summary

Introduction

As the aging problem becomes increasingly serious in many countries and in order to improve the life quality of eldly persons and persons with physical disabilities, the development to home service robot and the study of practical technology of home service robot are very important (as discussed by Tian Guohui [1]). Combining with the intelligent space technology, without adding more sensors on home service robot, a service robot can obtain more comprehendsive environmental information, perceive human and objects in space more completely. With this method, robot can do more service tasks and do them better with “light packs” in a complex home environment, for example, robot can complete many tasks which can’t be solved depending on its onboard sensors. Multiunit and multi-type service robots can work in the same platform with “light packs”, share the information resources (as discussed by Tian Guohui [3]) This technology can expand application fields of service robots and speed up its development. A discussion and the conclusion are presented in the last section
