| Abstract |
This paper presents the design and testing of
multiple infrared range detectors arranged in a twodimensional
(2D) array. The proposed system can collect
the sparse three‐dimensional (3D) data of objects and
surroundings for robotics applications. Three kinds of
tasks are considered using the system: detecting obstacles
that lie ahead of a mobile robot, sensing the ground
profile for the safe navigation of a mobile robot, and
sensing the shape and position of an object on a conveyor
belt for pickup by a robot manipulator. The developed
system is potentially a simple alternative to highresolution
(and expensive) 3D sensing systems, such as
stereo cameras or laser scanners. In addition, the system
can provide shape information about target objects and
surroundings that cannot be obtained using simple
ultrasonic sensors. Laboratory prototypes of the system
were built with nine infrared range sensors arranged in a
33 array and test results confirmed the validity of
system. |
