Lab Social Event

4/3/2016

25 Comments

 
On April 1, our lab was visited by several graduate and undergraduate students of UNR as part of our Lab Social event. My team presented a summary of on-going research directions and results. Our lab is still at its beginning but some cool stuff take place already! Below the presentations of my students and some of the relevant videos. Stay tuned as we will soon release research work!
​

Opening Presentation. Presenter: Dr. Christos Papachristos
Main Videos of this presentation (here we only list videos of work taking place 100% at UNR or in collaboration with others - all videos of prior work of myself at ETH Zurich are not listed here). 

Video 1: Autonomous Exploration (in collaboration with my previous team at ETH Zurich)
Video 2: Low-cost research platform capable of GPS-denied navigation. This robot was primarily built by Dr. Christos Papachristos. It relies on stereo visual-inertial fusion to enable autonomous navigation in GPS-denied environments. For the moment, safety issues have us assisting the system with a artificially generated features on the ground (as it is a pretty featureless carpet). We will soon release the video with the system in non-assisted autonomous operation.
The aerial robot used in this video is shown below:

2. Presentation of Shehryar Khattak (PhD Candidate)
Videos of this presentation. Shehryar is with us only three months and he is already doing some cool stuff!

Video 1: Shehryar is testing his under development robot. 
Video 2: Shehryar is testing the monocular visual-inertial localization system.
3. Presentation of Ashutosh R Singandhupe (RA - graduate student)
Videos of this presentation:

Video 1: Long-distance object detection
For this video we are using the sensor set-up shown below, while my car was used as the target to be detected.

Video 2: Picoflexx sensor, ICP-based 3D reconstruction (preliminary result)
4. Presentation of Tyler Sorey (RA - graduate student)
Furthermore in our lab social we provided a live demonstration of the localization and mapping unit as well as a demonstration of the ROS-enabled motion capture and robot control system using the Motion Analysis camera system. For those we used the VI-Sensor (localization demo) and the BeBop drone. Both are depicted in the photos below (for the BeBop drone we used one of its commercial photos as this is a system we simply bought and use). 

Stay tuned as more results will soon be out!

Finally, we statically presented our under development fixed-wing platform based on the X8 Skywalker (shown below)
