Abstract

We show how Cellular Neural Networks are capable of providing the necessary signal processing to guide an autonomous mobile robot in a maze drawn on the floor. In this way, a non-trivial navigation task is obtained by very simple harware, making real autonomous operation feasible. An autonomous line-following robot was first simulated and then implemented by simulating the CNN with a DSP.
