V. CONCLUSION
This paper presents a technique based on mobile
technology to control and navigate a robotic vehicle while
avoiding obstacles detected along the path of travel. The
vehicle supports transmitting audio and video to a remote
operator who can view the path on a web browser. The
prototype design, whose navigation is controlled by an
Android-based smart phone, combines both ultrasound
technology and image processing routines to avoid obstacles.
Although the present design utilizes basic sensors, ultrasound
emitters and a low cost smart phone, the performance can be
enhanced further if advanced electronics are integrated to setup
the vehicle.
