A Virtual Security Net and Soft Motion Controller for a 7-DOF Redundant Cooperative Robotic Manipulator
(Master thesis, 2018)This thesis presents the study and implementation of a virtual security net for a cooperative robotic manipulator. The input to the security net includes a goal- position and orientation for the end-effector paired with ... -
AI Planning and Low-Level Control for a Robotic Manipulator
(Master thesis, 2018)This thesis aims to explore the fusion of high-level AI planning and low-level robotic control. Although the field of AI planning can be said to have sprung out from robotics, researchers have recently expressed concern ... -
Automated Planning and Control for a Simulated Robot
(Master thesis, 2018)The early work in robotics and Artificial Intelligence showed great promise, but because of the challenges and difficulties met in the early phases, the two fields drifted apart. Artificial Intelligence focused more on ... -
Automatic testing of maritime collision avoidance methods with sensor fusion
(Master thesis, 2018)The development of Autonomous Surface Vessels (ASVs) has during the recent years seen a great progress. When being completely developed, these vessels may be used in a variety of scientific and commercial operations, ... -
Autonomous landing of multi-rotor UAV
(Master thesis, 2018)A GPS and camera-based landing system for navigating a multirotor UAV from a set of arbitrary GPS coordinates to a floating platform has been proposed. The camera-based sub-system uses a target (a specific geometrical ... -
Collision Avoidance for Autonomous Ships in Transit
(Master thesis, 2018)The interest in fully autonomous marine vessels has exploded in the last years. Many companies have developed and tested systems for autonomous marine vessels with great success. This thesis is part of a project where the ... -
COLREGS compliant Collision Avoidance System for a Wave and Solar Powered USV
(Master thesis, 2018)Autonomous ships are the future of modern maritime traffic, but in order to operate in the vicinity of other vessels, Autonomous Surface Vehicles (ASV) must be equipped with a collision avoidance system (CAS). This system ... -

Dynamic positioning for Autonomous Surface Vehicles
(Master thesis, 2017)This master seeks to prove that it is possible to control a small autonomous surface vehicle with a dynamic positioning controller, using simple controls and thrust algorithm. This should be done without using observers ... -
Empirical Mode Decomposition for Improved Noise Filtering and Classification of Two-Dimensional Data
(Master thesis, 2018)This thesis studies the use of Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) applied to two dimensional data and the application of this method to filter noise from images. Mode Mixing Separation (MMS) is presented and implemented ... -
Extending a derivative-free model-based trust-region optimization algorithm to account for constraints and partial gradient information - Application to oil field development
(Master thesis, 2018)This master's thesis is motivated by the oil field development challenge. This is a very big and complicated task and only one part of it will be in focus, namely, the well placement challenge. When planning a new oil field ... -
Harbor Surveillance with a K-best, Track Terminating, Hypothesis-Oriented MHT
(Master thesis, 2018)A high activity harbor environment could present several problems for a tracking system. The observable area may be small, targets may be closely spaced, move in formation and disappear close to where other appears. ... -
Mapping a maze with a camera using a Raspberry Pi
(Master thesis, 2017)This master thesis features the implementation of a complete image processing, mapping and communication system on a Raspberry Pi for the characterization and mapping of a maze from the air. The system was implemented in ... -
