The mobile indoor robot guidance system is a mobile robot which can assist users to find the desired position or location indoor or inside particular shed where Global Position System (GPS) failed to perform. Robot guidance system has many features in order to make the system useful for all of the users. The type of user who can make use of this system is mostly the disabled user and the user which is unfamiliar with the environment or the map. There is also potential usage inside the shopping mall or the big office spaces with the capability of displaying the advertisement during guidance process. This work deploys robot guidance system using geo-magnetic and Wifi methods for Indoor Positioning System (IPS). Although DC motors can generate interference to the magnetic sensor, the proper shields are adequate for the system. The metal shields for the DC motor can minimize the deviation from 6.41n T or about 16.74% for non-shielding motors to 2.86 n T or about 10.56%. Based on this research, mobile indoor robot guidance system can be implemented using various methods of IPS including geo-magnetic.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
