Additional Information

Performance Comparision of two LiDARs, Blickfeld Cube1 & Velodyne Puck
LIDAR and RADAR, Oct 2022 ‑ Nov 2022

• Bounding boxes are created using the given groundtruth values for each frame.
• Intersection algorithm is developed to intersect bounding boxes with pointcloud.
• Visualization of the 3D bounding box and pointcloud with different colors.
• Graphs are plotted between number of points inside the bounding box and distance of the vehicle for every frame for two LiDAR sensors &
compare them.


Object Detector using the RaDAR Sensor
LIDAR and RADAR, Nov 2022 ‑ Dec 2022

• Separation of Dynamic points from the pointcloud.
• Development of simple object detection algorithm to remove the noise and to find the accurate center.
• Comparision of the result position with the original position from the dataset.
• Implementation of this simple object detection algorithm on a new dataset


Implemetation of Robot Speed Control and Collision Avoidance Using Ultrasonic Sensor
Embedded Computing, Apr 2022 ‑ June 2022

• The objective of our project is primarily to control the speed of the robot whenever it detects an obstacle on its path.
• The robot is programmed on the Raspberry Pi using Thonny Python IDE.
• Ultrasonic sensor SR04 is used to detect the obstacle and measure the distance and the robot is driven by two DC motors.
• Developed an algorithm in which PWM decreases as the distance between the obstacle and the robot decreases, and turns in other direction in
order to avoid collision.


BICYCLE TRACKING SYSTEM

HW-SW Design Oct 2021 - Nov 2021
Modelling of a bicycle tracker system using SystemC(C++). Responsible for modelling of the GSM module in the project.
