せることができる。FIG. 4 shows an infrared tracking robot system using the target object of the infrared tracking robot, that is, an infrared light emitting ball 20. Infrared tracking robot 21
is a self-propelled robot with wheels 22a and 22b on the left and right sides.
It is equipped with casters 23a, 2'3b at the front and back, and has a battery BT inside, and wheels 22a, 22b are driven by motors 24a, 24b. The infrared tracking robot 21 also has a pair of infrared receiving elements 25a and 25b on the left and right sides of the front, and receives infrared rays from the infrared emitting ball 20. The output signals of the infrared light receiving elements 2Sa and 25b are transmitted to the amplifiers 26a and 26.
It is sent to the control section 27 via b. This 1111 part 27
compares the outputs of the left and right amplifiers 26a and 26b, controls the rotation of the motors 24a and 24b so that they are at the same level, and always directs the infrared tracking robot i1 at the center of the light to control the robot as described above. This allows the infrared light emitting ball 20 to be tracked by the infrared tracking robot 21.
