Navigation of mobile robot in cluttered environment

Abstract

Now a day’s mobile robots are widely used in many applications. Navigation of mobile robot is primary issue in robotic research field. The mobile robots to be successful, they must quickly and robustly perform useful tasks in a complex, dynamic, known and unknown surrounding. Navigation plays an important role in all mobile robots activities and tasks. Mobile robots are machines, which navigate around their environment extracting sensory information from the surrounding, and performing actions depend on the information given by the sensors. The main aim of navigation of mobile robot is to give shortest and safest path while avoiding obstacles with the help of suitable navigation technique such as Fuzzy logic. In this, we build up mobile robot then simulation and experiments are carried out in the lab. Comparison between the simulation and experimental results are done and are found to be in good.
