1A1-R01 A method to recognize people with laser scanners installed in indoor environment and a mobile robot(Integrating Ambient Intelligence(1))

Abstract

This research investigates a method to recognize people in indoor environment by using LRFs installed in the room and a mobile robot. Because of the time-delay in wireless communication and the position error of the robot, the information of both LRFs cannot be fused directory. Therefore, particle filtering and predetermined map were used to estimate robot position. Consequently, tracking information achieved from both sensors could be registrated correctly in the central computer.
