Abstract :
Butler Robot is used at home, which is integrated with autonomous mobile, multi-sensor data fusion and multi modal human computer interaction techniques. The butler robot unified all appliances and household robots; it provides intelligent human-computer interaction, you can control all home appliances and robots just with the butler robot´s simple interface. In this paper, a butler robot design is introduced, Lovely image is used for the upper body, the bottom is a wheeled mobile platform, This robot has good capability of home appliances management, simple user interaction, and remote control capability, and it can understand some of our orders, the robot offers delivering service at home with a friendly interactions and self-mobility at the same time. This paper analyzes the butler robot system, describes the structure of the hardware platform, mechanical structure and the realization of autonomous mobile.
