Bluetooth Based Proximity Sensing for Reactive Mobile Robots
Overview The Bluetooth radio system is an ideal communications tool for lightweight autonomous mobile robots but little research interest has been targeted at this application. Along with facilitating ad hoc communications, other features of Bluetooth may be exploited for use in the mobile robotics domain. The authors consider the likely scenario where a mobile robot becomes inoperably stuck and unable to free itself. The robot should be able to warn other robots about its situation in order to prevent further losses from the same potential failure. This paper demonstrates how the discovery phase of Bluetooth connection setup can provide simple proximity data without requiring an explicit connection to be established.
