Abstract

The mobile robotics and autonomous systems are topics of great interest in several research areas. The advances in this field have allowed some sectors of society can use robotic devices or autonomous systems. In industry, robots are used for welding, transporting, assembling and painting pieces. In medicine, sophisticated robots help to conduct complex surgeries. In the military sector, robots are used to explore hostile areas. Therefore, in this paper we propose a behavior algorithm defined with LeJOS programming language, for implementation in the LEGO Mindstorms NXT 2.0 robots. This behavior algorithm uses the ultrasonic sensor to detect objects in the route of the robot, and then calculate the distance between the robot and the object detected. Then, with the recollected data, the robot performs a scan on a predefined angle in search of objects adjacent the identified object. The robot, by running the behavior algorithm, will determine the dimensions of the detected objects and the available spaces between objects (obstacles) to determine the best route to follow to reach a target destination.
