Abstract
This study used real-time image processing to realize obstacle avoidance and indoor navigation with an omnidirectional wheeled mobile robot (WMR). The distance between an obstacle and the WMR was obtained using a depth camera. Real-time images were used to control the robot’s movements. The WMR can extract obstacle distance data from a depth map and apply fuzzy theory to avoid obstacles in indoor environments. A fuzzy control system was integrated into the control scheme. After detecting a doorknob, the robot could track the target and open the door. We used the speeded up robust features matching algorithm to recognize the WMR’s movement direction. The proposed control scheme ensures that the WMR can avoid obstacles, move to a designated location, and open a door. Like humans, the robot performs the described task only using visual sensors.
