Review of Autonomous Campus and Tour Guiding Robots with Navigation Techniques.

Autonomous robots are designed to support humans in diverse ways including companionship and assistance, as technology evolves, the burden of physical tasks which were performed by humans in the past are getting reduced. Autonomous guidance and navigation are popular fields that use mobile robots to replace humans. These robots are widely used in space, defence, education, and industry and require navigating safely through different environments. A significant aspect of Autonomous Robot Navigation is an obstacle and pedestrian avoidance. Most of the outdoor guiding robots follow the concept of SLAM (Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping) for moving from the initial point to the goal point. Moreover, image processing plays a vital role in the detection and recognition between humans and objects. The existing methodology comprises implementing autonomous tour guide robots are based in embedded systems which has a high degree of recognition accuracy. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the existing autonomous campus and tour guiding robots. This paper is steered at providing a satellite view of these existing assemblies and the advances made with them. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
