Abstract

A human-following robot is a mobile autonomous system designed to detect, track, and follow a specific individual in real-time while navigating through dynamic environments. This feature is essential for various applications, including delivery services, healthcare assistance, personal support, and collaborative industrial operations. It enhances efficiency, safety, and user experience by enabling intelligent and responsive interactions, making it an asset in both commercial and personal environments. The robot integrates cameras, LiDAR, ultrasonic sensors, and GPS with computer vision and machine learning algorithms to detect and follow its target accurately. These technologies work together to ensure smooth navigation and effective obstacle avoidance, enabling reliable performance in various environments and dynamic real-world conditions. This study details the development of a robust human-following robot capable of real-time target tracking, adaptive path planning, and safe autonomous navigation. The robot employs integrated sensor systems and intelligent algorithms to ensure accurate and consistent following behaviour. Emphasis is placed on maintaining stability and responsiveness, even in dynamic environments. Experimental validation was conducted in both indoor and outdoor settings, accounting for diverse lighting conditions and varying crowd densities. The results confirm the system’s reliability and effectiveness, demonstrating strong potential for applications in personal assistance, security patrol, and service robotics in complex, real-world environments.
