Thesis

Real time operating systems for autonomous robots navigation 

Description

In real-time computer systems the response time to the system input is as important as the correctness of the output generated by the system itself. The two mandatory characteristics required to classify the system as real-time environment are response time deadline achievement and system behaviour correctness. The deadline is defined by time where the result must be available. Correctness in autonomous systems is strongly linked to the acceptable time response to answer with a reasonable action triggered by a specific stimulus.

Autonomous robotics systems are arising in the market as vacuum cleaners, pet monitors and much more. The cited real-time system will keep changing state in function of the time, based on the stimulus provided by the environment surrounding it.

The accurate measurement of the position and robot motion capabilities is crucial for the next autonomous robots generation because the interaction between humans and robots is becoming inevitable. A real-time system capable to identify the robot location, closer obstacles and correct path to move safely avoiding obstacles, in parallel interacting with humans is worthwhile. The idea is to implement a generic navigation system for autonomous robots.
