Bio-Automation Lab in the Bio-Agricultural Engineering Dept. at UC Davis- Independently managed autonomous differentially-steered 4-wheel robot designed for strawberry field traversal. This included assembling, designing, and debugging all electronic circuits, as well as maintaining and fixing the robot’s mechanical components.- Collaborated with Professor and colleagues to identify and divide field traversal problem into workable sub-problems. Sub-problems were assigned to different members of the team.- Designed software/hardware solution based on system’s limitations and specifications.- Implemented and stabilized software/hardware solution. This included pose estimation via sensor fusion using a Kalman filter, establishing reliable communication between on-board microcontrollers, MATLAB, and ROS, and tuning performance of pure-pursuit path tracking algorithm.- Interfaced with various sensors, such as RTK-GPS, IMU, and wheel encoders.- Wrote MATLAB programs to simulate robot kinematics and pure-pursuit path tracking algorithm.- Designed and carried out repeatable, realistic experiments at the strawberry field to test robot’s performance.- Gathered experiment data over many trials and analyzed data to determine robustness.- Studied published research papers on related topics to familiarize myself with work that had been done in the past. Summarized past work and compiled my own research findings into reports.- Wrote and maintained documentation for robot’s operating procedure for future team members to reference.- Maintained git repository for version control and tracking changes to the code.
