Abstract
We have developed an intelligent mobile robot for service use, which can be utilized as a "secretary-or helper-robot" by daytime and "robot for security guard or maintenance including floor cleaning" by night in office buildings. An autonomous locomotion control system of this service robot is organized by four functions, i.e., path planning, recognition of absolute position, locomotion control and learning navigation controller. In this paper, in order to move more appropriately and smoothly in environments including human beings and obstacles, we have examined the learning function by means of fuzzy neural network which tunes up membership functions for fuzzy locomotion control. By this method, the intelligent robot can learn the moving area autonomously. Results obtained by computer simulation show that the proposed method is very useful for autonomous locomotion control of the intelligent robot.
