Abstract :
This paper deals with problems of design and realization of control system for autonomous robot. First part of project was to design hardware modules for data collection and motor control. Second part was SW that collects data from different types of simple sensors through Data collection module connected to CAN bus and from more advanced, like GPS and Microsoft KINECT, through USB. According these data, SW plans route with possibility of obstacle avoidance, glyph following and manual control, using wireless joystick (gamepad).
