Abstract
This paper describes a study of the simple system integration of a mobile robot in the Nakanoshima Robot Challenge 2022. To improve the operability of the robot at the start of its journey, we studied the solution to the problem of initial localization during the experimental run and the setting of virtual obstacles on the map to be used by the mobile robot. This method reduces the amount of time and manual operation required to estimate the initial position and orientation of a mobile robot in mobile robot experiments. In this study, a mobile robot is implemented using open-source products such as robot operating system (ROS) and i-Cart mini. Experimental runs in the Extra Challenge of the Nakanoshima Robot Challenge 2022 demonstrate the feasibility of the method.
期刊介绍:
First published in 1989, the Journal of Robotics and Mechatronics (JRM) has the longest publication history in the world in this field, publishing a total of over 2,000 works exclusively on robotics and mechatronics from the first number. The Journal publishes academic papers, development reports, reviews, letters, notes, and discussions. The JRM is a peer-reviewed journal in fields such as robotics, mechatronics, automation, and system integration. Its editorial board includes wellestablished researchers and engineers in the field from the world over. The scope of the journal includes any and all topics on robotics and mechatronics. As a key technology in robotics and mechatronics, it includes actuator design, motion control, sensor design, sensor fusion, sensor networks, robot vision, audition, mechanism design, robot kinematics and dynamics, mobile robot, path planning, navigation, SLAM, robot hand, manipulator, nano/micro robot, humanoid, service and home robots, universal design, middleware, human-robot interaction, human interface, networked robotics, telerobotics, ubiquitous robot, learning, and intelligence. The scope also includes applications of robotics and automation, and system integrations in the fields of manufacturing, construction, underwater, space, agriculture, sustainability, energy conservation, ecology, rescue, hazardous environments, safety and security, dependability, medical, and welfare.
