Mobile Robotics Challenge

Won 1st place in TU Wien’s Mobile Robotics Challenge with a coverage planning algorithm.

Developed a reactive coverage controller for TU Wien’s Mobile Robotics Challenge. When an obstacle blocks the path ahead, the robot compares the free-space area within cone-shaped sectors to its left and right, then turns toward the more open side to continue exploring.

Highlights

• 1st place in TU Wien’s Mobile Robotics Challenge.

What I did

• Adapted the coverage controller to choose a turn direction from the free-space area in left and right sectors when an obstacle blocks forward motion.
