  1. 6. Localisation and mapping in smoke filled environments : A study of robot perception in harsh conditionsusing practical experiments

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.)

    Author : Martin Zakardissnehf; Agnes Jernström; [2017]
    Keywords : autonomous navigation; SLAM; perception in smoke; autonom navigering; SLAM; perception i r¨ok;

    Abstract : Det här examensarbetet är utfört i samarbete med Realisator Robotics, vilka förtillfället utvecklar en robot, FUMO, som ska hjälpa till vid brandbekämpning. Målet med examensarbetet är att implementera autonom navigering från en punkt till en annan samt SLAM (Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping, simultan lokaliseringoch kartläggning) funktionalitet.

  3. 7. Mimer - Developing a low-cost, heavy-duty reconnaissance robot for use in Urban Search and Rescue operations

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Innovation

    Author : Björn Reiner; Marcus Svensson; [2016]
    Keywords : robot; search and rescue; robust; sensors; simple; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Robots currently exist that are specifically designed for use in the wake of disasters to help rescue teams in their work of locating and rescuing individuals trapped in confined spaces. However, they are prohibitively expensive which limits their adoption and causes the operators to think twice before they're deploying a robot with the risk of losing or damaging it. READ MORE

  4. 8. Minimum hardware SfM/SLAM for sparse data point mapping of retail stores

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematik LTH

    Author : Daniel Falk; [2016]
    Keywords : structure from motion; simultaneous localization and mapping; generalized imaging device; camera pose estimation; sparse data; point clouds; path planning; artificial intelligence; intelligent agent; line following; navigation; computer vision; cognitive science; stroke width transform; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This report aims to compare methods that can be used to efficiently and accurately map digital price labels position in 3D space using a mobile robotic platform equipped with camera vision in a retail environment. The robotic platform built during the project uses four wide angle cameras to cover the full circular view in the horizontal plane. READ MORE

  5. 9. UAV Pose Estimation using Sensor Fusion of Inertial, Sonar and Satellite Signals

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen för systemteknik

    Author : Kenneth Gustavsson; [2015]
    Keywords : Sensor fusion; Kalman filter; GPS; sonar; IMU; UAV; Sensorfusion; Kalmanfilter; GPS; sonar; IMU; UAV;

    Abstract : In this thesis a system for pose estimation of a quadcopter is developed. The implemented approach is to use a complementary Kalman filter to combine the information from an IMU and sonar sensors on-board the quadcopter with GPS. READ MORE
