Abstract

Line following robots are applied in numerous applications and the best performance could be obtained if the forward looking camera is applied. Variable light and line conditions influence the line estimation and quality of the robot navigation. Proposed History Dependent Viterbi Algorithm and Viterbi Algorithm are compared. Obtained results using Monte Carlo tests show improved performance of the proposed algorithm for assumed model.
