摘要
Localization is a fundamental problem in autonomous mobile robot navigation. This paper introduces a novel localization technique for indoor mobile robot navigation using a collection of laser-activated RFID tags distributed in the indoor environment. The laser-activated RFID tag is designed and used as the artificial landmark in the proposed localization system. The robot localization is achieved through the combination of the stereo vision and RFID technologies and based on the principle of trilateration or triangulation. The localization system functions like an indoor GPS. Preliminary research shows that the proposed system is promising to provide a robust and accurate indoor localization method for mobile robots.
