Abstract
A strategy and a control architecture to allow a mobile robot to navigate in an indoor environment on a planned path is described. The robot´s control system includes several processes which run in parallel by using specialized hardware. The navigation subsystem of the mobile robot integrates the position estimation obtained by a vision system with the position estimated by odometry using a Kalman filter framework. Obstacle detection is performed by means of a set of ultrasonic sensors
