Abstract :
This study aims to achieve a remote cooperative navigation system of a mobile robot which anyone can operate easily. This paper proposes a method of generating and online updating way points according to operator´s intentions at remote sites. That makes flexible remote navigation utilizing autonomous behaviors of the mobile robot. In this paper, some remote navigations experiments were performed and the results show effectiveness of proposed method.
