- Abstract
The aim of this article is basic overview of actual localization and mapping technics and introduction solution for scanning an unknown environment by ultrasonic sensors and localize mobile device by GPS system. The first step was localization of device by GPS system and communication protocol for the ultrasonic sensor to interact with PC. Created algorithm for environment scanning was implemented in the C# development environment. This application creates the graphical output of unfamiliar environment for recognizing the obstacles in front of mobile device. Next algorithm compares the distance between obstacles and dimension of robot to find ideal path. Algorithm output is safe angle for device for movements and proposed navigation path.
