Build

Designing and fabricating a wheel based mobile robot vs. building on the top of a reliable platform such as an R/C truck 1/10 scale.

  • R/C Truck 1/10 Scale
  • Embedded system 4 cores Linux
  • 5 megapixel camera
  • Servo controller
  • Power management
  • LiPo Battery
  • Safety on LiPo charging, use, and storage
  • Wireless Emergency Off (EMO) circuit

Track

  • Track building - hands-on ~ 40x20 m

Python

Open CV

ROS

Autonomous Vehicles

  • Odometry with wheels encoders and IMU
  • Short range obstacle avoidance using low cost ultrasonic sensors
  • Street light development RED/YELLOW/GREEN
  • Image processing with OpenCV
  • Image segmentation - far view, close view, fast processing
