Ridgy
Read about progress on my robot Ridgy on my blog: rasmuskjeldsen.blogspot.com, and read here: for more on the software/algorithms. I participated in RoboCup 2010 with it, and came in as number 8. I'm now implementing landmark recognition using OpenCV and Monte Carlo Localization to make the robot navigate in my house - Obvious usage: Please fetch a beer :-) |
Master thesis: Robot Navigation
My master thesis page. The goal of the thesis is to have an
autonomous mobile car-like robot with a map of its environment plan and follow a route from
a given position to a given position.

RoboCup 2005
Here is a couple of pictures of my robot Murphy++. I wrote my master thesis in 2005, so there was not much time for the competition. By the way: I used the robot for
both the competition and for my master thesis. I came in as number 6 (of 24), and got mentioned in the press: Dansetrin og offroad på Robocup |
Graduate project: Robotsim
robotsim.pdf: A written project on robot simulation. The project describes how to simulate a car-like robot, and how to find the shortest path from one position p1 to another position p2 for a car-like robot. A position is defined as the triple of the cartesian coordinates (x,y) and the orientation o: p=(x,y,o). The path finding algoritm is based on the work of L. E. Dubins: On curves of minimal length with a constraint on average curvature, and with prescribed initial and terminal position and tangents and J.A. Reeds & R.A. Shepp: Optimal paths for a car that goes both forward and backwards, and it points out and corrects several errors in the formulas stated by Reeds & Shepp. Finally it solves the Point-to-Point Motion Task by letting the car-like robot follow the shortest path using several different path-following algoritms. The text is in danish, but the figures/diagrams/formulas are understandable even if you dont read danish. |
RoboCup 2004
Here is a picture. I came in as number 2 :-)

Graduate project: Robot Construction
robotkonstruktion.pdf: A written project on robot construction. How to build a Microchip PIC-based robot controller, and how to attach sensors and motors to the controller. Large section on the Sharp GP2D02 IR Distance Measuring Sensor. The text is in danish, but the figures/diagrams are understandable even if you dont read danish. |

A PIC based LEGO controller / RoboCup 2003
This controller later became part of
my robot for my partition in the DTU
Robocup 2003 competition. I came in as number 4 and won the prize
for best design/effects. |
A LEGO Mindstorms TV remote control robot
My LEGO Mindstorms remote control robot for my old tv,
which doesn't have a remote control.

Bachelor project:
overkill.pdf - A written project on building a camera controlled robot
for the Robocup 2002 robot competition. The text is in danish!
We came in as number 12 of 16. Here is a couple of movies, the robot took during the competition: Final - First drive Final - First drive processed Final - Second drive Final - Second drive processed |
