Abstract

Mobile robots are widely researched in many applications and almost every major university has labs on mobile robot research. Also mobile robots are found in industry, military and security environments. For entertainment they appear as consumer services. They are most generally wheeled, but legged robots are more available in many applications too. Mobile robots have ability to move around in their environment. Mobile robot researches as autonomously guided robot use some information about its current location from sensors to reach goals. The current position of mobile robot can be calculated by using sensors such motor encoders, vision, Stereopsis, lasers and global positioning systems. Engineering and computer science are core elements of mobile robot, obviously, but when questions of intelligent behavior arise, artificial intelligence, cognitive science, psychology and philosophy offer hypotheses and answers. Analysis of system components, for example through error calculations, statistical evaluations etc. are the domain of mathematics, and regarding the analysis of whole systems physics proposes explanations, for example through chaos theory. This book chapter focuses on mobile robot system. Specifically, building a working mobile robot generally requires the knowledge of electronic, electrical, mechanical, and computer software technology. In this book chapter all aspects of mobile robot are deeply explained, such as software and hardware design and technique of data communication.
