Abstract
The research related to this paper is focused on developing a low cost autonomous robotic platform for domestic use which can be upgraded to perform multiple tasks. As the first step of it, we present here a testing prototype focusing on navigation and localization. Here the construction of the prototype is discussed where an overview of the platform is given. The driving mechanism and navigation and localization methodology is explained in details with the algorithms used. Finally the paper presents the test results generated through the testing platform including the map generated by the robot.
