Autonomous Exploration Robot

17/7/2023

 This project presents an autonomous mobile robot equipped with LiDAR(Light Detection and Ranging), ROS (Robot Operating System), QT5, and a camera. Its primary objective is to explore and access dangerous areas that are inaccessible to humans. The project utilizes a user-friendly GUI (Graphic User Interface) that allows operators to remotely guide the robot to desired hazardous locations. Once the robot reaches the designated area, the onboard camera initiates recording, capturing a comprehensive view of the surrounding environment. The integration of LiDAR technology enables the robot to perceive its surroundings accurately and navigate autonomously, avoiding obstacles and potential hazards. ROS serves as the operating system, providing a modular framework for controlling the robot's various functionalities and facilitating seamless communication between hardware components. QT5 offers a convenient and intuitive interface for users to interact with the robot, ensuring effortless control and monitoring capabilities. Overall, this project provides a robust solution for conducting exploratory missions in dangerous environments, enhancing safety and minimizing risks to human personnel.
