  • Publication number: 20070150103
    Abstract: A positioning device and method using two transmirrors for positioning a moving robot which moves in an indoor environment is provided. The positioning device includes a transmitter transmitting signals to first and second transmirrors; a receiver receiving signals from the first and second transmirrors; and a positioning unit determining the position of the moving robot based on time intervals between time points when signals are transmitted to the first and second transmirrors and time points when signals are received from the first and second transmirrors. Accordingly, the number of transmirrors can be reduced, and synchronization between the moving robot and the transmirrors is not needed, so that it is possible to easily implement the positioning with lower cost.
