This paper introduces a map building algorithm which can collect environmental information using ultrasonic sensors. And also this paper discusses a traveling algorithm using environmental information which leads to the map building algorithm. In order to accomplish the proposed traveling algorithm, this paper additionally discusses a path revision algorithm. For verifying the proposed algorithms, several experiments are executed using a mobile robot physically designed in this paper. The conclusion is that the proposed algorithm is very effective and is applicable to mobile robots especially requiring a low-cost environmental information.
