Robotic Monitoring of Human and Animal-Real Time and Automated

Abstract

Autonomous robotic monitoring of human and animal used to secure the house or the flat. This robot can move freely from one side to another side of the house or the flat. Accordingly, this robot is sending the vision to android smartphone in real time. Therefore, the owner of the house or the flat can see inside the house while they were not around. The objective of this research is to develop autonomous robotic to be able to monitor the area from the existing of human and animal and send the vision to android smartphone in real time. This research used four leg robotic as an autonomous robotic monitoring. Four leg robotic is equipped with camera which connected to router based on wireless connection, PIR and ultrasonic sensor and GSM module to send short message service (SMS) notification if PIR sensor detect some movement. The experiment used cat as an animal object. Experiment showed that this robot can follow the object, either a human or an animal, within range of 10–45 cm from robot in 12 seconds and send the vision to android smartphone in real-time. The SMS is received in 5 seconds after camera capture the object. This robotic cannot determine who is the object on the camera because it is not equipped with object detection system.
