how to find reference point for robots??

hello,

 

I am working on one robot and I want to know logic or algorithm to find the angle towards the reference point.

the thing is robot know the X cordinate y cordinates and angle of reference point.

and robot has also information about its position.

could any one please guide me how can i find the currect angle for robot to movie in the direction of robot.

Initially we assume obstracle  free atmosphere, means there is no any obstract in the way i only want to movie robot face in the way of reference point.

please any one can suggest me what algorithm is good for developing this logic.

 

Thank you very much in advance.

Hello AnkitRamani,

 

are you using NI  Hardware and Sofware?

Are you programming with LabView, which version?

Pleas tell me, then I can look for an solution.

Thank you.

Thank you very much for your reply.

 

I am programing with labview 2012 and I am using one robot named Jaguar and which has stargazer sensor, which has ability to measure the angle , X and y Cordinates as well as the reference ID.

http://www.robotshop.com/media/files/pdf/hagisonic-stargazer-v-manual-stargazer.pdf

 

robot has information about the reference point cordinates and by using stargazer it can check the current position of robot.

i want to know that how to rotate the robot in the direction of reference point means how to find the angle that move robot face in the direction of reference Point, then i can give move forward command to reach that point.

calculation should be based on X and y cordinate means compare the both x and y cordinate of reference point and current poitn and find the angle that it need to move this angle in order to go to the reference point.

 

Thank you very much once again for your  help.

I think, that the follwoing Link could help you to find your algorithm for programming yor robot.
