- Abstract
- The robots that will be needed in the near future are human-friendly robots that are able to coexist with human and support human effectively. To realize this, mobile robots should be controlled by the user easily and simply. This paper introduces a control system called "Navi-guider," which is to provide the user with easy control of mobile robots. Navi-guider system could detect a length and a direction of the tether which is pulled out by the user. Utilizing those detected factors, a new guiding system makes a user -friendly robot with easy control.The simple hardware configuration, the easiness of the moving control and the flexible application are the advantages of the proposed system.
