Navigation Robot Simulator
Keywords:
Navigation, Simulation, SLAM, Lidar, LabVIEW, PID controllerAbstract
This research aims to design a navigation system for a robot capable of determining its location, navigating towards a target, and studying the proportional differential integral controller. The robot simulates a vehicle with four wheels and a DC motor, controlled by LabVIEW software and a Lidar sensor. Feature locations measured visually, and a module for processing and analysis is developed. The project also outlines localization and SLAM basics, resulting in a concept for implementing Pose Graph SLAM in LabVIEW.
