| ABSTRACT |
| We have developed an autonomous mobile robot, that follows human automatically. The robot has infrared direction sensors and ultrasonic distance sensors in order to track the navigator, who has an infrared transmitter to be followed. The robot will perceive the infrared ray sent out by a transmitter and move to the destination. Although the traveled distance of the robot will be estimated from the number of rotate of the motor, it is not necessarily a precise distance owing to the delay of start by robot's own weight and the slip of tires. Therefore, in this paper, we will present a new scheme to measure the precise cruised distance of the robot by an acceleration sensor. |
