Voice Commendable Robotic Plotter by Using Mapping Techniques

Abstract

The advent of new high-speed technology and the growing computer capacity provided realistic opportunity for new robot controls and realization of new methods of control theory. This technical improvement together with the need for high performance robots created faster, more accurate and more intelligent robots using new robots control devices, new drives and advanced control algorithms. This project is to wirelessly control the movements of a four-wheeled robot through voice, locate the exact position of the robot and identify the presence of living beings. Our project is designed in a way, that utilizing optimum man power. For that purpose there is software running in the PC that can recognize the voice commands by the user. The path taken by the robot is drawn in the computer monitor using mapping techniques. By analyzing the path we can determine the correct location of the robot. The presence of living body is identified by using PIR sensor that is attached with the robot. Another Feature is Obstacle Sensing, Direction Changing and Collision avoidance; this is also the very important and lively feature of the Robot. There are many locations where the map is not available as a priori. So when we make use of this robot firstly in such an environment, we can trace the path taken by the robot and can proceed reliably through that path.
