Abstract: When autonomic mobile robot works inside a many-storeyed building, it contacts with computer by airwaves. Computer processes visual information obtained from robot’s video camera and according to this information controls the robot. Passing from one floor to another is performed through the floors connecting stairs. Without possibility to orientate on the stairs mobile robot may choose wrong path or bad position of movement in regard to a stair and fell down from the staircase. In the study we are using a mobile robot equipped with the video camera and light source. The robot is orienting according to bars of rays on the staircase construction, determining beginning and end of the stairs and extrinsical object. A view fixed by video camera is processed using Canny and Hough transformation synthesis. Activate form allows orientation on the stairs at any time of day, even with given textural impurity of the stairs when contours of the stairs are blurring into general textural entirety.
