Abstract :
This work addresses visual remote surveillance through the World Wide Web. A mobile robot built at the RISC lab is controlled via the Internet with the help of images obtained from a network camera. The user specifies the desired position by utilizing the real time Web based visual interface. The autonomous robot moves to that location avoiding obstacles
