Mobile Service Robot

This paper describes a stereo-vision-based mobile robot that can navigate and explore its environment autonomously and safely and simultaneously building a tridimensional virtual map of the environment. The control strategy is rule-based and the interaction with robot is done via Bluetooth. The stereoscopic vision allows the robot to recognize objects and to determine the distance to the analyzed objects. The robot is able to generate and simultaneously update a full colour 3D map of the environment that is being explored. The position and type of each detected and recognized object is marked in this 3D map. Furthermore, the robot will be able to use a gripper in order to collect detected objects and carry them to dedicated collecting bins, and so will be able to work in commercial waste cleanup applications. This application represents a successful integration of computers, control and communication techniques in mobile service robot control.

Wheels and legs are two widely accepted methodology used to move the moving platform to the ground. Wheels are human inventions, the rolls in a straight country excel in energy efficiency and speed of movement. Hybrid platform for integrating the benefits of legs and wheels with high mobility of both seems to be the "future" of mobile platforms for indoor and outdoor environment. This paper describes the design leg-wheel chassis for service robot.

Mobile Service Robot

The CENTAUROB is a mobile service robot which can operate in unstructured environments while always remain in a statically stable position. The special feature of this system is the use of two Stewart platforms as leg structures, providing high flexibility and maneuverability. By a special foot geometry (shape like a C), it has been possible for the first time to realize a walking biped which can even handle spiral staircases. In this paper, we present a new and advanced prototype of this system.
