Abstract

Guiding a mobile robot for culmination of assigned task within the imposed time has brought up a way for the study and envisions of navigation methods in indoor environment. The design perspective of the mobile service robots in this stream got attention, and navigation mechanism is to be enhanced. In this paper, we came up with such robotic structure and developed navigational algorithm that would be helpful to serve people in a reticulation environment. In this paper, laser focuses on design of mobile robot control unit that uses ultrasonic array for sensing random maze environment, viz. hospitals and actuate the stepper motor modules, respectively, to complete the service. As a part of the composition, we simulated this development in Vivado 14.4 environment using Verilog HDL programming and also synthesized on FPGA part xc7z010clg400-1 of zynq-7000 family by considering a random environment.
