This paper introduces a person following shopping cart robot. The developed prototype robot is using a shopping cart as the robot's main body and attaching a driving module. The aim of this study is to develop a porting system for large-sized facilities (i.e. shopping mall, airport, etc.), where the object item is autonomously carried by a person following ("after you") porting robot. We believe such study on porting robots is highly practical and necessary in today's aging society. By using the computer's signal output for autonomous run and the radio control operation function for risk aversion, a compatible control with computer and radio control is realized. The structure and the principle of control system are described.
