Aiming at the complex restaurant environment and low positioning accuracy, a guided control method based on magnetic sensors is proposed for restaurant service robots. The proposed method can make the robot sense the magnetic stripe through the magnetic sensors set up on the bottom of the robot so as to move along the magnetic stripe smoothly and precisely. In the moving process, by combining the landmark information sensed by the landmark module, the robot can get the precise position and work state. Finally, the method is applied to a real restaurant service robot to realize the precise positioning and navigation in the restaurant. Experimental results show that the proposed method has reliable performance, low cost, strong practicality and wide application prospect.
