Abstract

An autonomous robot is an unmanned, self-decision making vehicle that does not require any person controlling it. This document provides the development and implementation of a GPS (Global Positioning System) guided autonomous robot. The robot via GSM module can communicate to the base station for accepting the waypoints and sending parameters of the sensors on-board whenever queried. The GPS module gives the current location continuously to the microcontroller which intelligently determines the optimal path between the current location and the next waypoint until it reaches the final destination. It is employed with various sensors and a robotic arm which can be used for remote surveillance and picking or carrying an object from one place to another.
