Autonomous prototype car for IIT Kharagpur
TechieYan built a fully autonomous, driverless prototype car for IIT Kharagpur that maps its surroundings with a 3D camera and plans its own path.
Client: IIT Kharagpur
The problem
Researchers needed a compact, working autonomous platform to develop and test perception and path-planning algorithms without a full-size vehicle.
What TechieYan built
A scaled driverless car with a 3D camera and lidar, computer vision that recognises objects in its path, and autonomous path planning.
Key features
- Fully autonomous, driverless operation
- 3D camera and lidar perception
- Computer vision to recognise objects in its path
- Autonomous path planning
Where it applies
- Defence research
- Healthcare logistics
- Autonomous cleaning robots
Technology
Lidar · 3D camera · OpenCV · AI · Robotics control
