Abstract: This present innovation project focuses on designing and developing a human-following robot using different sensors. The robot is capable of detecting a human within a certain range and following them autonomously. In future to enhance our human-following robot with the ability to travel from anywhere to a human's location using a specific human code, we can implement a system that combines GPS technology with a wireless communication method. This system allows the robot to receive a specific human's location data (latitude and longitude) and then autonomously navigate to that location. The key components of this approach involve assigning a unique code or ID to each human, transmitting location data to the robot, and using GPS for navigation. The ultrasonic sensor or Lidar sensor measures the distance between the robot and the person, enabling it to maintain a safe following distance. My innovation robots have various applications, including assistance in healthcare, retail, and industrial sectors.
