Abstract

Most mobile robotic systems draw power from batteries which have a limited power life. Monitoring the status of the battery power on the robot is therefore important for autonomous robotic systems. The wireless system for monitoring lead–acid battery of obstacle avoidance robot has been developed. The system employs sensors, microcontroller ATMEGA 328, and Bluetooth module. The parameters such as voltage and current of battery are checked by the battery monitoring system during discharging of the battery. The varying discharging voltage and current values of the battery are detected using voltage divider circuit and Hall Effect current sensor, respectively. Battery voltage and current data will be transferred in real time to the microcontroller, and then it will be transmitted to display device using Bluetooth communication. In this work, monitored battery data will be displayed on Microsoft Excel of laptop Personal Computer (PC) with Parallax Data Acquisition tool (PLX-DAQ). The real-time data of voltage and current will be indicated by the system in the tabulated form along with graphical display.
