Control system of a humanoid robot (NAO) by a laser scanner
Résumé
The paper discusses an algorithm that assists in controlling the NAO humanoid robot through a system equipped with a two dimensional
laser scanner. By utilizing the external laser scanner in pre-defined confined spaces, the robot's movements become much more reliable. The
algorithm is implemented and tested in this system, overseeing the NAO robot's movement, merging data from the robot's built-in sensors with the
computational capabilities of the control system and laser scanner data. This system facilitates fast and effortless localization and navigation of one
or multiple robots in a feature-defined environment.
