Abstract
The main focus of this project is to propose a solution enabling a robot to robustly navigate a chosen forest path utilizing computer vision. The robot should be able to navigate the entire path, excluding public roads. While autonomously navigating the path, the solution should enable the robot to avoid obstacles such as pedestrians while also providing means to stop the robot when approaching public roads. A deep learning approach is used, providing the solution with a semantic segmenta- tion of the acquired images, splitting these into path and background. The segmented images are processed using classical image analysis in order to provide the robot with a driving direction, making it follow the path. A GPS based point of interest system has also been added, enabling the robot to stop when approaching traffic, while also providing a way of e.g changing parameters when driving a particularly difficult path segment. Through testing, the developed system has been successfully evaluated and the sug- gested solution was found to fulfill the project goals.
