Abstract
SAURON (Surveillance AUtonomous Robots Over Network) is a research project focused on the use of autonomous patrolling robots for surveillance purposes. This paper presents the structure of SAURON localization module AMIRoLoS (Active Marker Internet-based Robot Localization System). It provides on demand the robot position in indoor and outdoor environments using active markers and commercial off-the-shelf web-cams. The system has a client-server architecture, and is now part of a message-oriented middleware that is under development at the University of Brescia. The functionality of the localization module has been demonstrated with real-world experiments.
