Wireless Video Enabled Mobile Robot with PID Control
Abstract
Autonomous mobile robots (AMR) are becoming more common these days because they are useful and have many real-world applications. They are becoming more reliable and practical because they can move around on their own without needing physical or electronic guide. This work presents the development and implementation of a mobile robotic platform utilizing a Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) control algorithm for real time motion regulation and trajectory tracking. A camera-based vision system was incorporated to identify and quantify obstacles in the robot's path. The PID controller continuously processes feedback from onboard sensors (IR sensor, Ultrasonic sensor) to minimize the error between the desired and actual states of the robot, such a position, velocity, or orientation. The control loop dynamically adjusts motor actuation to achieve stable and precise movement. Tuning of the
