VS for mobile robot beacons navigation, based on analyze of conical projection environment on TV-camera

In this paper we present a cone vision system (CVS) based on conic projection image sensor for navigation in the environment equipped with special flashing beacons. A TV-Cam, a reflex cone, an IBM-PC, an input device for video signal and special software are used as CVS. The performances of the system in the environment of the real polygon are described. Analyses of the theoretical and real potentials are suggested. The work can serve as a methodical manual for the students of the senior rates, post-graduate students of natural faculties specializing in the field of path planning, management and information maintenance of autonomous mobile mechanical systems. Besides this work can serve as a methodical manual - example of automated information system for the students and post-graduate students both natural and humanitarian faculties specializing in the field of automated information systems.
