Paper Title
Electronic Odometer For Automation Systems
Abstract
With the increasing number of mobile automation systems in all spheres of the industry, there is a need for an
efficient and effective technique for measurements with respect to the position and displacement. This project proposes
development of an electronic odometer. The principle of working of the electronic odometer is similar to that of an optical
mouse that is used extensively all over the world, however instead of just calculating the change in coordinates to move the
pointer on a computing system, here we extend the application to calculate the displacement of the system. A camera
working at high speed is programmed to take several pictures of the surface below the device every second and sends these
pictures to the Processor. The processor receives these images from the camera and processes the patterns observed in them.
As the device moves, these patterns would shift in a particular direction. These shifts in patterns are observed and the amount
of shift taking place in both axes is calculated. Accordingly, the total distance travelled, the velocity and acceleration of the
device can be calculated.
Keywords - Automation Systems, Odometer.
