Manivannan %J Journal of Artificial Intelligence %D 2013 %I Asian Network for Scientific Information %X Robot is an economical pilotless transportation in forest and industries for detecting obstacles and for monitoring to prevent damages of robot. Avoidance of obstacle is based on PIC microcontroller, Sensor and wireless techniques. The whole system can be made functional and deployed. It stops the robot when there is an obstacle and passes the information to the client about the barrier. The system is monitored through Groupe Special Mobile (GSM) and Radio frequency identification and detection (RFID). Vehicle navigation is carried out using RFID technology and ultrasonic sensor is used to detect the obstacle. If any obstacle is detected, the information is sent to the user through GSM. Battery power and overload is monitored to indicate the worker as well as to send information to main user through GSM. Embedded system helps to minimize human power, decreases power consumption and provides greater performance. %K radio frequency %K wireless monitoring %K GSM module %K PIC controller %K obstacle detection %U http://docsdrive.com/pdfs/ansinet/jai/2013/52-59.pdf
