Robots are an integrated part of the industrial internet of things (IIoT). In this paper, an autonomous wheeled mobile robot (AWMR) is designed and developed that operates on a robot operating system. The requirement of this robot was it must deliver required equipment, and parts to the desired location in a warehouse, so an autonomous navigation system has been implemented which directs the robot from start to end goals through the required path avoiding obstacles. After building the hardware of the robot the electronic and necessary interconnections, data exchange system, and software were installed. For mapping and localization, SLAM is used which takes LiDAR data for effective mapping. After running the necessary tests on the platform, several remedies have been suggested for the issues that were discovered during the tests. The developed AWMR is used for the transport application of warehouse management. It is successfully transferred material with obstacle avoidance capability in the pathways. The results obtained and information gained in the platform design, both of which have been quite excellent, will serve as a reference for future actions.
