Design and development of service robot based human - robot interaction (HRI)

In this paper, the service robot named “BlackBot” as receptionist robot is descried, that is a small three-wheeled mobile platform with a differential drive, which was controlled by a mini PC. The BalckBot could sense its surroundings with the aid of various electronic sensors while mechanical actuators were used to move it around. Robot's behavior was determined by the program, which was loaded to the microcontrollers and PC. The experiment results demonstrated the feasibility and advantages of this predictive control on the trajectory tracking of a mobile robot. The service robot is designed to assist humans with reception tasks. The robot will interact closely with a group of humans in their everyday environment. This means that it is essential to create models for natural and intuitive communication between humans and robots.
