  1. 21. Experiments with Visual Odometry for Hydrobatic Autonomous Underwater Vehicles

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Somnath Balaji Suresh Kumar; [2023]
    Keywords : Hydrobatic AUVs; VO; Stonefish; ORB-SLAM2; VISO2; Hydrobatiska AUV:er; VO; Stonefish; ORB-SLAM2; VISO2;

    Abstract : Hydrobatic Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) are underactuated robots that can perform agile maneuvers in challenging underwater environments with high efficiency in speed and range. The challenge lies in localizing and navigating these AUVs particularly for performing manipulation tasks because common sensors such as GPS become very unreliable underwater due to their poor accuracy.

  3. 22. Developing an Automated Drivability Index for Swedish Roadways

    University essay from KTH/Transportplanering

    Author : ANDREI DAVID RADU; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The masters thesis aims to determine a method to understand which road segments could pose safety risks or where Level 4 autonomous vehicles would operate poorly in the Swedish road context. This vehicle’s ability to operate adequately can be defined as ‘drivable’. READ MORE

  4. 23. Object Recognition and Tracking of Bolts: A Comparative Analysis of CNN Models and Computer Vision Techniques : A Comparison of CNN Models and Tracking Algorithms

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Serhat Bulun; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The newer generation industry 4.0 focuses on development of both flexibility and autonomy for power tools used by companies in different mechanical areas and assembly lines. One area for automation is the application of computer vision in power tools to detect, identify and track bolts. READ MORE

  5. 24. Teleoperation of an Autonomous Ground-Penetrating Radar for Non-Destructive Surveying: Design and Implementation

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Rasmus Beyer; [2023]
    Keywords : Autonomous; GPR; Robotics;

    Abstract : A lot of features that need to be scanned underground should not be disturbed, from waterlines to unmarked graves. A non-invasive way of probing underground is Ground-Penetrating Radar (GPR). GPR finds differences in materials with radar waves. However, GPR is human-operated and its position is generally determined with a GPS. READ MORE

  6. 25. Autonomous Navigation: LIDAR-based SLAM, Terrain of Technology Explored

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik

    Author : Oscar Sanner; [2023]
    Keywords : MSc; SLAM; Pathing; ICP; FastSLAM; LIDAR; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In this thesis, an autonomous system capable of navigating and mapping unknown environments is developed. The solution uses a family of algorithms called SLAM or simultaneous localization and mapping, capable of mapping the environment and retaining accurate position data without external sensors such as GPS.
