  • Abstract
    A fuzzy controller for navigating a robot tracking a wire is developed. The robot is part of a tick eradication system that works by attracting ticks using CO2 emitted from a tube and collecting and killing them with an acaricide impregnated cloth. The authors show that using sensors with fuzzy characteristics to track a wire in the CO2 tube produces a fuzzy controller that bypasses the fuzzification step resulting in a simple and effective controller.
