Hi all.
I am making a project. In which i have a sample area. I need to map the area using ir sensors mounted on a robot. The robot navigates in the area and makes a map of the area indicating locations of obstacles. the area comes out to be like a grid with the obstacles marked as 'x' on the grid. Can someone plz help me out with a algorithm which makes the robot travel in the area and create a map.

Check out this link:

Its with source code!

hi. thx for da link. but this link contains an algorithm for travelling once the map is made..
my aim is to create a map. and determine where the obstacles are.

look again, my algorithm does exactly what you need :P
it creates a map with a sharp IR, adds obstacles to that map, then plans a path accordingly.

so could he use the $50 robot with sharp Ir upgrade and just put in a new algorithm as easy as that or are there complications
