Laser-activated RFID-based Indoor Localization System for Mobile Robots

by Yu Zhou, Wenfei Liu, Peisen Huang
Robotics (2007)

Abstract

Localization is a fundamental problem in autonomous mobile robot navigation. This paper introduces a new artificial landmark-based localization system for mobile robots navigating in indoor environments. Laser-activated RFID tag is designed and used as the artificial landmark in the proposed localization system. The robot localization is realized via the combination of the stereo vision and laser-activated RFID based on the principle of triangulation. The localization system functions like an indoor GPS. Preliminary research shows that the proposed system is promising to provide a robust and accurate indoor localization method for mobile robots.
