Abstract

Thanks to the numerous attempts that are being made to develop autonomous robots with increasing intelligent and cognitive skills are performed. In this new sophisticated era, various kind of construction has been developed and growth up from many field such as industries, economy, and infrastructure. However, the field that has been focused by industry especially to improve the productivity is by using a modern and sophisticated technology such as robots, machines and others. Besides, the familiar electronics applications such as hand phone, computer and washing machine have been widely used by human being. Applications of these electronics instruments need a microcontroller as its brain to give command in the program such as PIC microcontroller, Atmel, Motorola and others. In this project, the PIC microcontroller that has been used and programmed to design the movement of the Tour Guide Robot, ToGouR based on the packages is PIC16F877A microcontroller. Besides that an application of this robot also had been designed using Visual Studio 2010 as a graphical user interface (GUI) that allows users to interact with electronic devices with images rather than text commands. A GUI represents the information and actions available to a user through graphical icons and visual indicators such as secondary notation, as opposed to text-based interfaces, typed command labels or text navigation.[1] Various alternatives have been used to make sure this project is successful carried out. This tour guide robot is suitable to be commercialized with numerous robotics companies that would like collaborate in delivering this project as a product and can be used for military or during any unexpected catastrophe such as one that occurred in Japan.
