i am making a human following robot using a sensor. which sensor should i use that could work the best? i mean to say that i could perfectly monitor the motion of human.
that i could perfectly monitor the motion of human.
Nothing perfectly monitors the motion of human.
The simplest would perhaps be a PIR sensor but it is not very directional. You would have to do things to make it more directional, like putting it down a long tube.
There was a thread recently that used an ultrasonic one for that, but I can't remember the member's name. There was something clever about the use of two sensors if I recall, one on the human and one on the robot, that made sure it followed "the" human not just "a" human.
Have a search of the forum.... it was in the last few weeks, maybe a month back.
Couldn't you just shoot them with a 'Tagger' gun and have the robot follow the tracker ?
I mean it isn't really a 'human' following robot is it if you can put the ultrasonic sensor on a dog's ass and the robot will still follow it.
