Abstract
This paper presents the preliminary results obtained when using a mobile robot to measure gas and wind intensity in an indoor area by means of several attached sensors such as a LIDAR, an e-nose, and an anemometer. The robot navigation was performed by means of a random path planning and the robot self location was performed by means of an SLAM procedure. This paper presents the first preliminary results obtained in a set of measurement experiments. In all cases, the indoor area has a fixed artificial simulated airflow and an induced gas leak source placed in different locations of the experimentation area. Results have shown different gas diffusion profiles in the different experiments performed.
