Abstract
This paper presents the project and development of a Mecanum-wheeled robot with a system for autonomous navigation. The robot is equipped with odometry and a laser sensor for range scans. A Monte Carlo Localization algorithm is used to estimate the pose of the robot in a global coordinate system and, simultaneously, a Grid Map is generated with the range scans to enable navigation. Once the map is constructed, the robot is able to perform autonomous navigation, given a desired goal. The Robot Operating System (ROS), an open-source framework for writing robot software, is used as middleware.
