Overview

Pioneer 2 Features Guidebot uses Saphira and PAI software supplied by Activmedia for control of movement and other functions Eight sonar transducers positioned around the front of Guidebot PAI software controls all movement, rotational and translational, along with taking in sonar data Onboard heading information allowing for precise turning Onboard distance taken from wheel encoders

Previous Work Java-based Manual Web Control

Graphical User Interface

Modes Of Operation Idle/Assistance Mode Guide Mode Patrol Mode

Waypoint Detection Doorframes, open hallways, wall drop offs Waypoint checked every 300 ms using one sonar transducer Waypoints are only checked for when Guidebot is within a predefined range of the waypoint Offices and other sites that are considered waypoints that have no distinguishable features will be found using the nearest waypoints and the distance Guidebot has traveled Most doorframes have a 9cm drop off between the wall and door which is large enough to check with the sonar transducers 9 cm

Waypoints

Waypoint Detection

Drift Correction X Y’ -2Θ-2Θ Y Wall Θ Guidebot is designed to follow a straight path to its destination Problems with drift have been observed and a method for correction has been devised using trigonometry

Drift Correction

Collision Avoidance

Remaining Work Implement waypoint path / hallway crossing Interface interaction / motion sensing
