A Mobile Robot for EUROBOT Mars Challenge

The aim of this paper is to present an intelligent autonomous robot for competition EUROBOT 08. In this ”Mission to Mars”, two robots attempt to gather, sort and dump objects scattered on a planar rectangular play-field. This paper descripts robot hardware, i.e. electromechanics of drive, chassis and extraction mechanism, and software, i.e. localization, collision avoidance, motion control and planning algorithms. The experience gained by participating on both national and international round is evaluated. … full description
