Outline of Final Research Achievements

For remotely operation of mobile robot, wireless communication range is very important information. We studied on an environmental model generation with sensors, an electric field strength simulation using the model, and visualization of the simulation results.
As the result of the research, we developed the method of an environmental model generation suitable for electro-magnetic field simulation using 2D/3D range sensors on robot. The simulation results using the 2D model was similar to the measured value. We also developed the fast method of the simulation in a limited environment. Visualized result of the simulation is shown to the PC for the aid of the mobile robot operation.
