Projects


Vision or Roadmap Based Robot Motion Planning
Mentor: Dr .Amitabha Mukerjeee,Department of Computer Science and Engineering,IIT Kanpur
SURGE|May 2014-July 2014


  • Devised an algorithm to automate the motion and plan the trajectory of CRS Robotic arm using computer vision, image processing and Gaussian models
  • Implemented Gaussian Process Latent variable model and Gaussian process regression to figure out the mapping between joint angles of the robotic arm and corresponding images for various configurations for trajectory planning
  • Recovered the joint angles of the robotic arm from the corresponding images with about 99.5% accuracy and generated a smooth trajectory between unknown robot configurations with solution sufficiently close to ground truth solution
