Abstract :
This paper presents the development of mobile odor tracking robot (OTR) for the odor source localization. The metal semiconductor sensors, analog distance sensors and embedded technology are used. A ??error algorithm is proposed to give movements to the robot in the direction of odor source. The obstacles are also detected with sensors and the proposed algorithm, which gives the appropriate direction to robot towards the odor source.
