Abstract

This article describes RISCBOT (RISCBOT name has been derived from RISC lab and `bot' of robot, a modular 802.11 b-enabled mobile autonomous robot built at the RISC lab of the University of Bridgeport. RISCBOT localizes itself and successfully fulfills www --- enabled online user requests and navigates to various rooms, employing a visual recognition algorithm. This article describes the mechanical design, hardware and software algorithms of the robot, and the web-based interface for communicating with the robot.
