Guiding Robot

Coaching Questions Group 12


Subject

Guiding Robot


Objectives

  • Autonomous robot.
  • Scan environment.
  • Keeping the user into account.
  • It can guide its user in a restricted area.


Users

The robot we want to develop and are describing in this wiki is a robot to replace the guiding dogs. This robot will be used by the visually impaired the way they are now using guiding dogs. This means that they will use the guiding robot to walk inside, outside and to find there way to a store, bus stop etc. So the robot will not only have an impact on the visually impaired that is directly using the guiding robot it will also have an impact on the people in the direct surroundings of the visually impaired. For example when a visually impaired using the guiding robot wants to cross the street the drivers of the cars must really on the guiding robot to not cross the street if this isn’t possible. So this gives us the visually impaired who are the primary users, the people in the surrounding of a visually impaired that is guided by the guiding robot as the secondary users. And then we have the developers who are the tertiary users.

The users and there different needs of the guiding robot

Visually Impaired (primary users)

  • Making it save to walk outside
  • Making it easier to make a walk outside
  • Navigate them to different destinations

State of the Art

Group 12: State of the Art


Approach

  • Research
  • Which robot we will use to implement the software.
  • Perceiving of the environment and recognizing obstacles.
  • Obstacle avoidance.
  • Adapting to the environment (tension on the rope).
  • GPS navigation.
  • Voice recognition.
