Autonomous Human Following Robot

Real-time human detection and tracking with an autonomous wheelchair robot. The aim is to follow the human from a constant distance, robustly. The person being followed changes his speed at different times. The distance to human error and angle to human data are shown in the top and bottom figures, synchronously.
Human detection & tracking is based on Spencer framework [1], and the local planner is Follow the Gap Method (FGM) [2]. This application is developed with my undergraduate students Umut Uğuzlar and Enes Cansu under their BSc. thesis', and with my graduate student Emre Can Contarlı. The paper is on the way.

Hey, I'm very curious about this project.
I'm a B. Tech final year student, I want to make a similar project based on this.
What are the prerequisites for this application?
Can you please provide me resources to implement it on my project. My project is Autonomous Following Robot.

Hello im a student,and iam very curious on learning how to do this project,do you have any guidance program?

[@1volkansezer]

Thank you for your interest, and I appreciate your curiosity. Unfortunately, we don't have a specific guidance program available at the moment.

I have sent you a message to your email address (or there are two links in the channel description). Read it, maybe it will be useful for you. And two questions. How exactly does the robot gain and lose speed? Is there a special algorithm? Does it slow down only when the distance between becomes zero? And similarly for the direction. Does he check whether the angle has become zero? And congratulations, a living being makes approximately the same fluctuations around the meaning.

-How exactly does the robot gain and lose speed? Does it slow down only when the distance between becomes zero?
*It uses a closed loop controller (a PID controller in this application) to make the error zero (error=desired distance to person-actual distance to person). So not only when the distance becomes zero, every time it calculates the appropriate velocity of the wheelchair to make the error zero.
- And similarly for the direction. Does he check whether the angle has become zero?
*The position of the person is taken as a goal point to be reached. "Follow the gap method (FGM)" is used to reach that position, as a local planner. Details of the method can be found here: www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0921889012000838
Best!
