Abstract. The article presents a prototype indoor space mapping solution using RFID transponders. The autonomous robot reads the information they contain using a set of several readers, which improves the process. The design of the robot prototype is based on the STM32 NUCLEO module. Two types of transponder grids are considered, square and triangular. Simulation results for both grid types show the efficiency of reading information from transponders by the moving robot.
