A Study of Feeding Robot Based on RFID and Ultrasonic Obstacle Avoidance

Abstract

According to the environmental characteristics of the printing workshop, the free path planning and autonomous obstacle avoidance of the paper feeding robot in the printing workshop were studied by using RFID technology and ultrasonic sensor technology, the path planning system, obstacle avoidance system, control system and driving system are designed and developed, and the experimental prototype is made. The robot's self-guidance and automatic obstacle avoidance are simulated in the laboratory environment. The results show that in the environment as printing workshop with the stations are relatively fixed but surroundings are complex and changeable, paper conveying robot has the advantages of flexible path change and low cost, not easy to be affected by environment and so on. This method provides a feasible reference for robot self-guidance and obstacle avoidance in dynamic environment, and has a broad application in prospect.
