This paper discusses the development of an autonomous tennis ball retriever robot for the sports sector. The robot was developed with the aim of saving the time and energy of the tennis player from manually collecting the tennis balls after training sessions. The developed autonomous robot is able to retrieve tennis balls by sweeping around the tennis court. The paper discusses the system configuration in terms of mechanical and controller subsystems, the navigation and system performance. The knowledge and experience gained from the development of various sub-systems of the robot is useful for educating the undergraduate students. date: 2015 publisher: Elsevier B.V. official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84962881979&doi=10.1016%2fj.procs.2015.12.270&partnerID=40&md5=9fba731ca43ca67159aa65c42029e785 id_number: 10.1016/j.procs.2015.12.270 full_text_status: none publication: Procedia Computer Science volume: 76 pagerange: 21-26 refereed: TRUE issn: 18770509 citation: Elamvazuthi, I. and Law, J. and Singh, V. and Khan, M.K.A.A. and Parasuraman, S. and Balaji, M. and Chandrasekaran, M.
