摘要：AbstractIn this contribution, we present preliminary results of the student project aimed at the development of an intelligent autonomous robot supporting small pets in a domestic environment. The main task of this robot is to protect a freely moving small pets against accidental stepping on them by home residents. For this purpose, we have developed the mobile robot which follows a pet and makes an alarm signal when a human is approaching. A pet is recognized in images with the use of a convolutional neural network. Walls and obstacles are detected with the use of ultrasonic sensors. A control system of the robot is implemented with the use of the Jetson TX2 platform. Preliminary tests of the robot demonstrate not only usefulness of our solution but also further directions for its development.
