| Summary: | Rapid technological advancements have led in the era of the connected home, where the integration of sensors and smart devices has provided innovative solutions to enhance safety and convenience. In response to this trend, the project "Robot Surveillance for Connected Home Integration" proposed an inventive approach to home surveillance. The project utilized a TurtleBot3 prototype robot programmed to autonomously navigate to specific locations within the home, triggered by sensor inputs. Upon arrival at the sensor-triggered area, the robot captured and transmitted a photo of the scene to the homeowner's mobile device. Leveraging the versatility and customization capabilities of the TurtleBot3 robotics platform, this project aimed to create an intelligent surveillance system that combined automation, real-time communication, and mobility. The robot was equipped with various sensors, a camera, and a Raspberry Pi for communication and processing. A central control system managed the robot's movements, allowing it to respond to sensor triggers, compute suitable navigation paths, and avoid obstacles seamlessly. Core functionalities of the system included real-time sensor monitoring, route planning, obstacle detection, image capturing, and remote communication with the homeowner's smartphone via the Telegram App. This report provided a comprehensive overview of the project, including the study of ROS2 (Robot Operating System 2), the TurtleBot3 platform, simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM), autonomous navigation (Navigation2), camera setup, sensor transmissions, Telegram app integration, and graphical user interface design. Additionally, it presented experimental results and performance evaluations to assess the system's effectiveness in real-world circumstances. The project's key contribution was to provide homeowners with a cost-effective remote smart monitoring solution that smoothly fit into existing connected home ecosystems. The "Robot Surveillance for Connected Home Integration" project combined robotics and smart technology, making homes safer, smarter, and more connected. The system highlighted how robotics could improve home security and automation by leveraging TurtleBot3's mobility, sensors, and real-time communications. This project served as a foundational framework for future developments in the field of connected home surveillance, with potential applications in various household and commercial sectors. |
