Discussion of the next project after hardware-X submission
Topic 1: Journal Publication - Hardware-X
Re-design the robot base for the hardware-X publication
Publish the following file:
CAD files including the URDF
ROS nodes and schematics
Show some experimental results e.g real-time control and monitoring with ROS-Mobile and Android-based devices; remote control from Arduino and joystick etc.
Perform SLAM and demonstrate some experiment.
Topic 2: Conference paper for possible publication in IROS, ECMR etc:
Open source open shuttle (O2S) for SLAM and navigation applications: – Compare the existing SLAM algorithms for efficient navigation in a cluttered and dynamic environment
O2S intention signalling: – for safe human-robot interaction (HRI) using intention signalling.
Mobile robot teleoperation through hand gestures approach (possible for publication at the National European conference )
Deep navigation with O2S (proposal for Christoper M.Sc. thesis – subject to changes pending the outcome of the meeting on Friday)
Future Steps
Survey of open-shuttles in logistics: Possible for A.I based journal publication
