I. INTRODUCTION
In the last years there have been projects with a type of robot
that has unique characteristics compared to other robots . [1],
[2] These are the omnidirectional robots, these are classified
in locomotion platforms with the same name, provides a
complete structure that is able to move in a direction at any
time without requiring a specific orientation for navigation. For
the type of movement requires wheels that can move in more
than one direction. [3] omnidirectional movement has become
popular in mobile robots because it allows the robot to move
in a straight line from a point source to other point, without
having to rotate before moving. Additionally, the path planning
can be combined with a rotation, so that the robot reaches its
destination at the correct angle. this robots already have study
in the field of robotics, [4], [5] from certain positions in a
plane, [6] until the determining its kinematics and dynamics.
[7] On the other hand the process of combining vision and
robot control is commonly known as visual servoing, this control of robotic systems has large potential applications when
robots are operated in an unstructured environment. In this
approach, the vision system mimics the human sense of sight
IV. METHODOLOGY
This is faced up to in three stages: first, algorithms of control
of the platform robotics. Second a pre-processing algorithm
handles the image provided by the camera, filters the desired
colour and outlines the objects of this colour. Third, a neural

IX. CONCLUSIONS
In this paper, we introduce a simple visual servoing based in
neural network, which utilizes the images and IR sensor for
estimating the actions the robot should take, working in an
unknown environment in the presence of obstacles There are
several features worth pointing out ,the control based on artificial vision significantly reduces the computational burden of
computing systems but otherwise is not as accurate compared
to other sensory systems. Experimental results indicate that
the algorithm of artificial vision and the algorithm of control
based in neural network is efficient and effective in terms
of detecting obstacles goal seeking and obstacle avoidance
