Introduction
For over two years, we have been working with the Robotics and Autonomous Systems research group on the autonomous navigation of an Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV). We are seeking student assistance for further development.
Title: LiDAR SLAM for a JetBot using the Robot Operating System
Task Description
- Assembly and commissioning of a JetBot (hardware is available)
- Familiarization with the existing system (JetBot)
- Review and improvement of the existing documentation
- Control of the JetBot
- Focus on one of the following areas:
- SLAM LiDAR Mapping
- Path Planning, Autonomous Navigation, Dynamic Obstacle Handling
- Image Processing
- Human-Robot Speech Interaction
- Testing and scientific documentation in the HSHL Wiki
