Objective
The objective was to:
(1) Enable a mobile robot platform
(2) Autonomously create 2-D map of a floor using Laser Scanners
(3) Self-navigate from one location to another by avoiding obstacles on the way
Summary of Results
Following outcomes were obtained:
(1) Floor plan of the corridor near iRobotics Lab was built
(2) Rooms, in the explored area, were recognized automatically
(3) Rooms were assigned numbers autonomously by the robot on-the-go
(3) Static & Dynamic obstacles were avoided
(4) Robot moved from one location to the other based on user commands
(5) Web-based GUI was developed
(6) GUI supported developers with real-time data and end users with command input
