Past projects, NavLab

• 3D Vision for Autonomous Navigation - We are developing object representations built from range images that can be used in landmark recognition and object matching
• Active Sensor Control for Neural Net Lane Tracking - Panacea enables existing, fixed-camera lane-trackers such as ALVINN, to use steerable cameras without retraining.
• ALVINN-On-A-Chip - The ALVINN-on-a-chip project is developing an intelligent VLSI imaging sensor for road following
• AUtomotive Run-Off-Road Avoidance system - To help avoid highway accidents, we have developed a vision-based lateral position estimation system called AURORA.
• Autonomous Land Vehicle In a Neural Network - Neural network navigation
• Distributed Architecture for Mobile Navigation - The Distributed Architecture for Mobile Navigation (DAMN) is a behavior-based architecture similar in spirit to the Subsumption Architecture.
• Grid based Approach for Navigation by Evidence Storage and Histogram Analysis - Grid based navigation
• Massively Parallel Road Following - Autonomous roadway navigation using video images
• No Hands Across America! - Vehicle drives across the United States
• Ranger - We are developing a software control system for cross country autonomous vehicles called RANGER, for Real-time Autonomous Navigator with a Geometric Engine.
• Rapidly Adapting Lateral Position Handler - adaptive steering
• Real-time Autonomous Car Chaser Operating Optimally at Night - RACCOON is a taillight-tracker that can drive an intelligent vehicle at night, when the road is not visible, by following other cars.
• Side Collision Warning System for Transit Buses - To develop a warning system which helps a driver of a transit bus to avoid side collisions with pedestrians, other vehicles, or stationary objects.
• Simulated Highways for Intelligent Vehicle Algorithms - SHIVA is a microsimulation of a highway environment, designed specifically for testing intelligent vehicle tactical algorithms.
• Simultaneous Localization and Mapping with Detection, Tracking, and Classification of Moving Objects - We are developing the algorithms to solve Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) and Detection, Tracking and Classification of Moving Objects (DTCMO) problems for both indoor and outdoor applications.
• Situational Awareness Planner Implementing Effective Navigation in Traffic - SAPIENT is a distributed approach to tactical decision making for intelligent vehicles.
• Supervised TeleRobotics using Incremental Polyhedral-Earth geometry - Teleoperating vehicles over low bandwidth links.
• Transit Bus Collision Warning Systems - Research and integration of side and front collision warning systems for transit buses.
