Ceiling Light Landmarks Based Localization and Motion Control for a Mobile Robot

—This paper presents ceiling light landmarks based localization and motion control for a mobile robot. The novel mechanism design for the mobile robot is introduced, and the method of localization using ceiling light is proposed. Navigation map, network matrix and the method to find shortest path are described. From the path planning, the control scheme of autonomous navigation for the mobile robot can be generated automatically. Navigational experiments indicate the effectiveness of the method presented in the paper.
