Vision based autonomous driving of robots for the disinfection and decontamination of transit assets
Duration: 2022-2024
Role: PI
Research Objective: This task is part of a SBIR Phase II grant subcontracted to USC by Advent Innovations. Objective of this task is to develop an vision based autonomous algorithm for driving motors. Using LiDAR & depth camera proposal is to process the data in real time to find proper path in transit assets like in bus terminus for hazard free driving of the robot. Stationary and moving object detection and object avoidance is part of the goal.
