Car Robot Remote Control
Car Robot Remote Control
WINLAB Summer Internship 2022
Group Members: Jimmy Huang, John Greaney-Cheng
Project Objective
Remote control of a robotics platform using video streams. The project will require students to work with video streaming toolkits and develop software to allow for low-latency control of the remote platform from either a first- or third-person view. Students will begin by setting up ROS on a robotics platform at Winlab so that they have a system to work on, with the ultimate goal of testing the remote control system on the hardware developed by the smart car team at the end of the summer.
Students will need to write a ROS node to run on the vehicle platform which will receive remote control commands and translate them into control signals for the platform hardware. Students will also need to work with software such as gstreamer for low-latency streaming of the video feed from the car.
Week 1 Update
- Learned how to navigate Linux Command Line and Orbit Management Framework
- Installed ROS Melodic on node and worked through the tutorials
- Met with other groups within the Car Intersection group (Mini Smart Car Hardware Design, Autonomous System Infrastructure, Multi-Cam Fusion for Smart Intersection)
