Abstract
The tour guide robot Roslyn is an autonomous system that can provide tours to
anybody on the second
oor of the Scrugham Engineering and Mines building. The robot
is not only able to navigate the halls, but navigate them in a socially acceptable manner.
This means it does not collide with pedestrians while in motion and takes walking speed
into consideration. In order to interact with the user, there is a touch-screen display
mounted on top of the moving robot base. As the robot moves throughout the hall,
information appears on the screen related to the landmarks being passed (i.e. laboratories
and o ces). The user is also able to select a destination on the screen in order to begin
the tour.
