We have developed amechatronics education program using line tracing robots controlled by microcomputers. Each studentmakes a robot, including essential elements of the robot system. Through this curriculum, students acquire knowledge, skills, and techniques of mechatronics systems through actual experience. We have also developed a system to aid the work of Teaching Assistants (TAs). We have evaluated and improved the work of TAs’.

This paper proposes an obstacle avoidance scheme of a novel mobile robot system for automatic search of books in libraries based on the radio frequency identification (RFID). Nowadays, most of the libraries utilize the barcode identification technique, since it is of low cost. However, our experiments show that using RFID adequately can save more labor and improve the library management efficiency, since RFID has many advantages, i.e., large information storage and long identification distance, etc., whose application in library management information system has great development potential. Based the advantages of its long-distance identification ability combined with the close accurate positioning technologies, an intelligent mobile robot system for automatic search of books anywhere in libraries is design in our project, which can effectively improve the book search efficiency, saves the massive cost and improve the library informatization level. According to this mobile robot, we give a fuzzy multisensor fusion technique based obstacle avoidance method, which can make the intelligent robot searching the desired books automatically in libraries. Both the simulation and the actual experiments validate the obstacle-avoiding algorithm.

Automatic Search

In this paper, a novel mobile robot system for searching books automatically in libraries is designed based on the radio frequency identification (RFID) and singlechip programming techniques. Recently, the barcode identification is frequently used in libraries. However, because of its unique advantages of RFID technology and its application in the intelligent robots will be able to achieve high-efficient automatic search of books. RFID has the advantages of large information storage and long identification distance etc., thus application in library management information system has great development potential. By using RFID long-distance identification ability combined with the close accurate positioning technologies, a mobile robot for automatic search of books in libraries is designed, which can effectively improve the book search efficiency, saves the massive cost and improve the library informatization level.

Outdoor Navigation

We are developing a self-contained and autonomous mobile robot that can navigate around our university campus. In this paper, we discuss issues important to a robot which has sufficient intelligence and toughness to withstand the rigors of outdoor navigation. Then, we report on our mobile robot ""YAMABICO NAVI,"" which has many integrated functions such as locomotion, position estimation and sensors that detect landmarks and obstacles as an example. Furthermore, we describe an execution monitoring tool that is used to observe the internal state of the robot outdoor experiments.
