Abstract
In this paper, we propose the motion control system for the outdoor autonomous mobile robot in the sidewalk. The robot moves by using road edge of image data. This image data is used for detecting the sidewalk boundary. The detected boundary is set as a sidewalk border and it uses for road following control of the robot. When the sidewalk is covered with the tile, the system detects the arrangement pattern of a tile. The direction of a sidewalk is detected from an arrangement pattern.
