Project Description and Objectives:
The unmanned delivery robot is one of the most popular research fields, which is acknowledged as an important channel to realize the commercialization of the driverless car. This can effectively change the conventional lifestyle of humans overall. Despite the size being smaller than a real car, the unmanned delivery car includes different kinds of sensors such as 3D-lider, stereo camera, RTK-GPS, sonar radar, and so forth. These can help to realize real-time highly accurate localization, road area, and lane detection as well as obstacle detection and classification.
The project aims to realize autonomous package delivering tasks by the unmanned delivery robot. The main parts of the project are self-localization, perception in both interior, and the exterior environment through multisensory fusion, trajectory planning, and motion control. The project also emphasizes path planning algorithms to realize obstacle, avoid overloading, and stable self-driving performance on the specific and required road.
Eligibility Requirements:
Basic knowledge of robot control and coordinate transformation.
Basic knowledge of ROS is preferred.
Carefulness, patience, accountability, and interest in the work.
Main Tasks:
Finish a research report.
Choose one research direction (localization, perception and navigation) and propose the optimization scheme.
Realize the proposed scheme with ROS in the robot.
