Our Project

Interns will a develop a server-client infrastructure to allow for remote control of autonomous robots in any smart city environment. They will begin by setting up ROS (Robotic Operating System) on a robotics platform at WINLAB so that they have a system to work on, with the ultimate goal of testing the autonomous driving system on the hardware developed by the smart car team at the end of the summer. In addition to working on the server-client system and measuring the latency of the system, interns will research and implement different self-driving algorithms and test them with the ROS platform. Most of this work will be done using Python and PyTorch (a machine learning library). Interns will also need to implement methods for collecting data in order to train their self-driving systems.

Weekly Updates

Introduction: Week 1

  • Met and introduced ourselves to our intern groupmates

  • Learned the purpose and tasks of our assigned project. 

    • Step 1: Understand how ROS works.

      • Goal: Make a neural network run on the platform, then the server          (using the same training data)

    • Step 2: Receive feed from camera -> Connect both ways
