Security robot with ROS system

This paper aims to develop and test a security robot with the Robot Operating System (ROS) to enhance safety in various locations, such as factories, hotels, hospitals, shopping malls, and other places requiring security measures. The robot is equipped with functionalities to patrol predetermined points, capture images, stream live footage from its onboard camera, and send the captured images to the LINE application for real-time inspection and incident reporting. The developed system comprises hardware, including the robot fitted with Lidar and a camera, ROS-based software for control and navigation, and a program for connectivity and data transmission to LINE. The experiments were divided into several stages, including testing the installation and operation of the ROS system, assessing the robot's movement along predefined paths, capturing images at specified locations, and transmitting the images to LINE. The results demonstrated that the robot could move accurately along the predetermined paths, capture high-quality images, and send these images to the LINE application quickly and reliably. The development of this robotic system not only enhances the efficiency of security and surveillance operations but also reduces the workload of personnel and increases safety in areas where the robot is deployed. Furthermore, the findings of this research pave the way for future advancements in robotic security systems by integrating more advanced technologies and enhancing functionality.
