Bionic Robots as a New Alternative to Guided Dogs

As the robot industry grows, research into biomimetic robots continues to increase. Robot dogs are one of the more researched types. Unlike robotic arms and vehicles, robotic dogs emphasize interaction with people, and therefore their applications are more focused on daily life. Machine guide dogs are one application that makes good use of this feature. This paper describes the use of the robot dog DOGZILLA S1 for route patrol as well as obstacle recognition. Based on this, the robot dog will provide feedback to people, which can be used as pre-research for designing it into a complete guide dog.
