Abstract

One of the complex challenges in the field of artificial intelligence and robotics is enabling robots to accurately determine their position. While this task is simpler in open spaces using antennas, satellites, and other tools, it becomes much more challenging in enclosed environments. Various methods are employed for indoor positioning, one of which involves low-cost rangefinders and polygon mapping around the robot.
This paper presents a new algorithm entitled RLuTF using turning functions and their geometric properties, allowing the robot to determine its position at any given moment.
