Re: Student Project for an Autonomous Bed Mover
Take a look at University of Michigan's hospital system in Ann Arbor, Michigan. They have, or had, robotic delivery systems for food service, supply deliveries, and more. Last time I saw them was back around 1992 or so, but it basically did what you are looking for. If I recall they had a line following system that ran in a "robot carpool lane" of sorts. It was all pretty cool stuff when I was 9 years old.
I remember thinking they moved slow, but carried more than a person could.
