Abstract :
We propose a method of guiding mobile robots in a networked space. To watch human and robots, distributed sensor devices with processors are located around the networked space. In this space, robots as well as the human are supported informatively and physically. The distributed sensor devices guide mobile robots in this space and navigation with high adaptability is realized. The simulation and experimental results including the camera arrangement and robot guidance with distributed sensor devices are shown
