Application of fuzzy reinforcement learning in IoT-based robotics for autonomous navigation and collision avoidance

In this study, we investigate the viability of applying fuzzy reinforcement learning (FRL) to Internet of Things-based robots for purposes of autonomous navigation and collision avoidance. The proposed approach utilises FRL, IoT, and a sensor network to give the robot the ability to learn from its environment and act in accordance with those policies. The authors used FRL to train a mobile robot with wheels to move around and avoid obstacles, and then they put the robot through its paces in a virtual world. Results showed that the FRL-based technique improved the robot’s navigation and collision avoidance performance compared to traditional rule-based approaches. The results of this study indicate that FRL may be a viable technique for enabling autonomous navigation and obstacle avoidance in IoT-based robotics.
