Project history
Design, develop, test and deploy the software stack for robotic applications.
Established a software team of 9 members and related processes to deliver quality software. Led product development from scratch for products including Sculptor (a software framework for robotic applications), Cut n Move and SmartStair (robotic applications), Maker (web application for product configuration and orders), and Fleet Management System (web application for monitoring robotic cells). Cross disciplinary interaction with various stakeholders.
Control of a Mobile Robotic Manipulator: sampling-based motion planning for a 7 DOF arm, machine vision for payload localization, 3D octree environment representation using 2D lasers, and robotic application for FOUP transfer. Control of AGVs (Forklifts): laser-based perception for goal detection and docking, PID control for mechanical uncertainties, navigation and SLAM integration, and payload verification using barcode scanners.
