F1/10 Scaled Autonomous Car
UCLA EEM202A Course Project
In this project, we train an F1/10 scaled autonomous car to drive along a course.
Robot Car shall be able to autonomously navigate forward as necessary while ensuring that it will not make contact with anything. Also, it shall be able to perform path planning and navigate while maintaining a distance of 1- 2 inches from walls when necessary.
In order to satisfy the requirement, IMU, LIDAR, ZED camera and structure sensors are stalled to provide sides, forward and the back coverage of the device.
The LIDAR sensors enable wall following by maintaining a certain distance from the wall. The structure sensors enable obstacles and cliffs detection when backing up. The IMU, LIDAR and ZED camera give complete obstacle coverage to the moving forward.
