Abstract:A navigation system for a mobile robot is introduced. Road boundary for a particular environment could be detected in this system. The road boundary detecting method is robustness to some disturbances.An autonomous land vehicle made by ourself, navigated by this visual system, could move at the speed of1km/h on the campus road.
