Solución robotizada para apertura de puertas en instalaciones contenidas o de alto riesgo biológico

Abstract

In a context of a pandemic caused by the SARS-CoV-2

virus, there is a need to disinfect busy areas such as schools,

hospitals, nursing homes, laboratories, public transport, etc.

using techniques that pose a risk to health. In turn, the robotics

industry is at a critical moment with great developments and

applications in numerous applications. Therefore, the figure of

robots is of great interest as they have the ability to perform

these tasks autonomously. However, there are great challenges

in current robotics that must be resolved in order to perform

tasks correctly. This is the specific case of door opening.

Something necessary since to achieve a complete disinfection

the robot must go through all the rooms of the installation.

In this work, a solution to the problem of opening doors is

presented by means of a mobile robot to which artificial

perception techniques are applied for detection, handling and

autonomous navigation.
