vehicle systems operating systems business metrics performance metric algorithms communication nodes (networking) automotive engineering light detection and ranging (lidar) technical documentationStudents will develop and enhance the vision-based safety system for our remotely operated campus vehicle. The project focuses specifically on improving the ROS2 nodes that process camera and LiDAR data to detect pedestrians and obstacles. Students will work with existing sensor hardware to create more reliable detection algorithms, implement visualization tools for the operator dashboard, and thoroughly test the system's performance. This focused project is ideal for computer science or robotics students with ROS experience who want to apply their classroom knowledge of computer vision and sensor processing to a real-world application.
- Enhanced ROS2 vision processing nodes that improve pedestrian and obstacle detection accuracy
- Integration of camera and LiDAR data in a single ROS2 package with documented parameters
- Visualization components for the operator dashboard to display detection results
- Comprehensive test suite with pre-recorded sensor data to validate detection performance
- Technical documentation including node architecture, message definitions, and parameter guides
- Performance analysis comparing detection accuracy and processing efficiency before and after improvements

About the company
At Telebotics, we're on a mission to transform urban logistics through autonomous technology that addresses the industry's most pressing challenges.
THE PROBLEM
The final mile of delivery represents over 50% of total logistics costs, while driver shortages and urban congestion continue to worsen. Meanwhile, emissions regulations are pushing companies toward sustainable solutions.
OUR SOLUTION
We equip existing electric vehicles with modular autonomy kits that scale from remote assistance to full autonomy, enabling businesses to adapt at their own pace while dramatically reducing delivery costs and environmental impact.
OUR VISION
A future where autonomous delivery vehicles seamlessly navigate urban environments, making cities more livable, commerce more efficient, and transportation more sustainable.
