This involves designing virtual environments for Gazebo and/or writing robot plans in Lisp using the CRAM high-level language, sending commands to virtual PR2 or REEM(-C) robots in Gazebo, and manipulating the artificial environment in there.

+ | < | ||
+ | **Main Objective: | ||
+ | need information about their geometry. While the overall shape is | ||
+ | sufficient for picking up an object, more information about its | ||
+ | composition from parts and their meaning (e.g. a handle or a container) | ||
+ | is needed when using objects as tools in more complex activities. | ||
+ | We have developed an initial version of a program library that is able | ||
+ | to analyze CAD models of objects, as they can be found in large databases | ||
+ | on the Web, and to automatically identify such functional components. | ||
+ | As part of this project, that software library is to be extended in | ||
+ | order to recognized additional geometric primitives (e.g. torus, box) | ||
+ | and to improve the segmentation and make it more robust. Alternatively, | ||
+ | the focus could be more on improving the analysis infrastructure and | ||
+ | integrating it more closely with the robot' | ||
+ | **Task Difficulty: | ||
+ | ranges from rather simple tasks at the infrastructure level to | ||
+ | interesting research problems for the geometric analysis.\\ | ||
+ | **Requirements: | ||
+ | solid understanding of 3D geometry. Good programming skills in Java | ||
+ | are needed for implementing the algorithms and for evaluating their | ||
+ | results. Depending on the exact topic, knowledge of machine learning | ||
+ | methods or the ability to learn about them could be helpful.\\ | ||
+ | **Expected Results:** We expect operational and robust contributions | ||
+ | to the software library that can be used as part of a robot' | ||
+ | program. | ||
