Autonomous Vehicle Navigation and Mapping System

Abstract

Autonomous vehicle navigation gains increasing importance in various growing application areas. In this paper we described a system it navigates the vehicle autonomously to its destination. This system provides a communication between vehicle and internet using GPRS modem. This system interfaced with OSRM open source map through internet. So we can decide the robot path from internet. In non-urban Domains such as deserts the problem of successful GPS-based navigation appears to be almost solved, navigation in urban domains particularly in the close vicinity of buildings is still a challenging problem. In such situations GPS accuracy significantly drops down due to unavailability of GPS signal. This project also improves the efficiency in navigation. This system not only relay on GPS. To improve the efficiency it uses location information from inertial sensors also. This system uses rotatable laser range finder for obstacle sensing. This is also designed in such a way that It can be monitored from anywhere through internet.
