Controller for obstacle detouring of remote control service car

TLDR
In this article, a car body side is equipped with an automatic steering control means for obstacle detouring which is operated on the basis of a stored obstacle detour pattern, which is used for steering while a detour is made around an obstacle.
Abstract
PURPOSE:To make a detour around an obstacle without any complicate steering operation by providing a car body side with an automatic steering control means for obstacle detouring which is operated on the basis of a stored obstacle detour pattern. CONSTITUTION:This controller is equipped with a steering control means 101 for remote control which operates an actuator 8 for steering on the basis of instruction information generated by a steering instruction means 100 provided to a transmitter and the automatic steering control means 103 for obstacle detouring which operates said steering actuator 8 on the basis of run path information which is stored in an obstacle detour pattern storage means 102 and used for steering while a detour is made around the obstacle. Those steering control means 101 and 103 are switched on the basis of instruction information generated by a starting means 104 for automatic obstacle detouring provided to the transmitter 11a to control the operation of said steering actuator 8.

Coverage robot navigating

TL;DR: In this paper, a method of navigating an autonomous coverage robot on a floor includes controlling movement of the robot across the floor in a cleaning mode, receiving a sensor signal indicative of an obstacle, rotating the robot away from the sensed obstacle, determining a change in the received sensor signal during at least a portion of the rotation, and identifying the detected obstacle based at least in part on the determined change in sensor signal.
