Abstract

We developed a pet care robot that can be controlled outdoors. Through the smartphone application, the pet owners can watch the situation in the house and manipulate the robot to make their pet happy. The video data in the house is transmitted to the application through the webcam installed at the house. The robot can not only perform user's command but also do six basic macro action. The obstacle avoidance function using the current sensor can be activated if the user want to use. When the robot hits to something, it moves back and rotates by arbitrary angle, and then moves forward.
