Multi-Mobile Robot Localization and Navigation based on Visible Light Positioning

Abstract: We demonstrated multi-mobile robot navigation based on Visible Light Positioning(VLP) localization. From our experiment, the VLP can accurately locate robots' positions in navigation. 1. Overview With the rapid development of robot technology, robotic control is promising in research and commerce. Mobile robots are also widely used in a variety of environments. Especially in the automated warehouse, robots have the advantage of being cheaper and more efficient than human beings for simple and repetitive missions. However, Robotic Positioning is a fundamental ability of multi-mobile robot system. Outdoors, global positioning system(GPS) sometimes give us attenuated location information signal impacted by reflections and penetration[1].
