%X This paper elucidates the research and implementation of guiding robots to a predetermined path. The robot is programmed through an 8 bit micro controller. The input to the robot for a particularpath can be given by pressing available buttons. The advantage of the robot is that it can help transport things from one place to another by keeping the item over the tray on the robot. It has been installed with voice recognition system, which can take voice command to stop in case of emergency, and xbox kinect which can be used to help robot know its surroundings. In future the robot can be used for proving help to people in their daily life routine for carrying things from one place to another. It is programmed in such a way that source to destination navigation path is preprogrammed.The user can also make the robot learn the path that he must follow, when asked, and save thenavigation, which can be accessed from one of the buttons.Xbox Kinect is added to one of the DB9 port. Kinect for Windows consists of the Kinect for Windows hardware and Kinect for Windows SDK, which supports applications built with C++, C#, or Visual Basic by using Microsoft Visual Studio 2010. The robot can be used for improved skeletal tracking and enhanced speech recognition.
