Optical communication system for a robot in project Aeris

Abstract

Robotic laboratory Aeris, created by the Department of Technical Cybernetics, is a universal and interactive robot “playground”. This robotic laboratory makes it possible to create various simulation scenarios, either static or dynamic, like line follower or dynamic maze. This platform has the potential to be used for educational purposes but also as an aid for researchers. In this paper, we present an optical communication system add-on that enhances the capability of this platform, opening the possibility to create even more scenarios.
