Abstract
This paper presents the use of Point Number Algorithm (PNA) for real-time image processing for position identification of mobile robot. PNA can get how many points in the image gotten from the robot vision and can calculate the distance between the robot and the wall by the number of the points. The algorithm can be applied to a robot vision system enable to identify where it is in the workspace. In the workspace, the walls are made up by white background with many black points on them evenly. The angle of the vision is set invariable. So the more black points in the vision, the longer the distance is from the robot to the wall. But when the robot does not face the wall directly, the number of the black points is different. When the robot faces the wall, the least number of the black points can be gotten. The simulation results are presented at the end of this paper.
