Hello,

I have been assigned a project that should be able to navigate, avoid obstacles and handle objects. I have to use NI-Myrio and Labview to complete the project. Since I am new to robotics and Labview, I have limited idea to approach the project. Basically, the robot needs to get inside a room and pickup object while avoiding obstacles and again, get outside of the room from a different door and drop the objects in drop zone.

Regards,

So how far have you gotten on your class project? Any ideas at all?

I have some ideas relating to use of sensors ie using ir or ultrasonic range finders to navigate . Still, i dont thonk i can achieve the target without image processing.

Hi, mike
I will be updating if i make any progress on the project.

In general I would agree, but there are different levels of "vision". You have cameras, line cameras, optical transistors, all offering varying kinds of vision. Even ultrasonic ranging is a kind of vision.
