This paper describes the development of a mobile robot system capable of autonomously traveling along a path for a long duration. First, for robot movement, 20-cm-long QR codes were affixed to the ceiling. The codes are used as landmarks for the robot movement path. These landmarks are recognized by the camera mounted on the robot, and they visually guide the robot to the destination. Therefore, the robot is a completely autonomous mobile robot. Next, to support long-duration tasks in customer space, we designed the space to automatically supply power to the robot. We also confirmed that during the eight hours of travel testing, the robot continuously traveled along the path without any problems.
