We were interested in difference of operation between robots and sensors that differ in price and technology they use. We tested them in three different phases. In the first phase we tested operation of sensors, in the second phase we tested operation of robots and in the last phase we tested combination of robots and sensors. In tests we used four different sensors: Kinect, Astra Pro, Kinect 2 and URG-04LX and we used two different robots: Roomba and Pioneer 3-DX. During tests we used Robot Operating System (ROS). Kinect 2 showed the best performance among the sensors. Pioneer 3-DX was the best performing robot and best combination was Pioneer 3-DX with URG-04LX.
