HUMAN FOLLOWING ROBOT

INTRODUCTION

 In this high technology, a robot must be able to detect and follow humans.
 A robot that can detect and follow humans or obstacles within a specific range is called the
‘Human Following Robot’.
 A robot that can use in shopping time which carries items, and follow human without any
remote more useful.
 A robot that can use in the hospital to bring the medicine with more accuracy and fast.
 The human following robot has many works like working as a trolley, a structure in a
hospital, a small basket with a car, and so on.
ABSTRACT

 This paper presents a project of designing and building a human following robot.
 This system is mainly run in indoor application.
 A human tracking algorithm will be designed to run the human following robot on tracking a
target person.
 A camera is used to capture image that will be process by the Arduino which will control the
robot to follow the target person.
 Arduino is used as a platform of processing the data that collected from the sensors then
execute the command on controlling the movement of the human following robot.
APPLICATIONS

 Looking deeply into environment or our surroundings, we were be able interpret that there
is a need of such robot that can assist humans and can serve them.
 Such a robot can be used for many purposes.
 With a few modifications, the robot can act as a human companion as well.
 The tasks these kind of robots can perform are limitless including assisting in carrying
loads for people working in hospitals, libraries, airports etc.
HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS

 Arduino Uno
 Ultrasonic sensor (HC SR04)
 DC Motor Driver L293D
 DC Motor
 Power Supply
ARUDINO UNO

 Microcontroller board based on the ATmega328P.


 14 digital input/output pins (of which 6 can be
 used as PWM outputs)
 6 analog inputs.
 16 MHz quartz crystal
 A power jack Connect it to a computer with a USB cable or power it with a AC-
to-DC adapter or battery to get started.
ARUDINO BOARD
ULTRASONIC SENSOR

 The ultrasonic sensor is used for obstacle detection.


 Ultrasonic sensor transmits the ultrasonic waves from its sensor head and again receives
the ultrasonic waves reflected from an object.
 The ultrasonic sensor enables the robot to virtually see and recognize object, avoid
obstacles, measure distance.
 The operating range of ultrasonic sensor is 10 cm to 30 cm.

 This will allow the use of advanced sensors like Kinect sensors
 Image processing algorithms can be added
SOFTWARE USED

 ARUDINO IDE
 Keil C
CONCLUSION

 The successful implementation of a prototype of a human-following robot is illustrated in this paper.


 This robot does not only have the detection capability but also the following ability as well.
 While making this prototype it was also kept in mind that the functioning of the robot should be as efficient as
possible.
 Tests were performed on the different conditions to pinpoint the mistakes in the algorithm and to correct them.
 The different sensors that were integrated with the robot provided an additional advantage.
 The human-following robot is an automobile system that has the ability to recognize obstacles, move and change
the robot's position toward the subject in the best way to remain on its track.
