Abstract

Artificial Intelligence has played a major role in the technology field. One of the wonderful creations in this field is designing an autonomous delivery robot. For delivering goods, the delivery person leaves the ordered delivery at footstep by risking the security of the parcel. In this highlyunpredictable world, being driverless and maintaining a safe and secure delivery is a science fiction. Our primary objective is to design a four-wheeled ground drone which has ability to drive from one location to another inside the campus moving with respect to various grid lines,such asstraight tracks, left-curved tracks, curved tracks post the straight tracks and right-curved tracks. We make use of computer vison to detect the obstacles in the path of the robot. Also, convolution neural network is used to find the optimal path for avoiding collisions with obstacles in a safe and reliable manner and navigating the robot from the starting location to destination. Our second objective is to transport goods which will be protected with a password protected locking system, from one point to another point within campus.
