Summary

A user friendly graphical tool has been designed to provide in real-time detailed 2D graphical representations of a mobile robot’s workspace environment and trajectory. Sonar sensors are used to collect information related to the robot’s environment, including obstacle identification. Given the obstacles’ distance from the robot, their coordinates are calculated progressively, as the robot moves, and subsequently the whole environment is mapped in real time with minimum time-delays.
