RESEARCH OF MOBILE ROBOT BEHAVIOR WITH eMIR

In this paper a mobile robot for research and education is described. The main reason for building this robot is the possibility to do research in cognitive robotics, goal oriented robot languages and perception of work environment. Robot is equipped with infrared distance sensors and a camera, and complete environment may also be observed using external camera. Robot kinematics model and speed control are integrated in the robot microcontroller, so user sets robot translational and rotational speed only. Controlling the robot is possible from any programming language and operating system that makes this platform very flexible. Robot is equipped with battery and wireless communication which results in bigger autonomy and connection with more powerful computer. The system is able to do fast check of robot control algorithms for single robot behavior or behavior in group of robots. Three robots have been already built, together with test platform 4 x 2 meter in size.
