We designed and built robots from bolts and metal to perception algorithm. I mainly helped
with writing STM32 application software and perception code.
Codebase for Robotics Motion Planning
Ri-Zhao Qiu
Personal Project, 2020
Codebase
I implemented a codebase for robotics motion planning, which supports common problems
like 2D narrow passage, bug traps, and robot arm grasping. It implements a variety of
algorithms including RRT, RRT*, bRRT, PRM, FMT. In addition to uniform sampling, it also
supports non-uniform sampler using conditional autoencoder.
