Lunar dust presents a serious problem for future lunar rovers. Due to the charged nature of this fine dust, it tends to stick to sensitive elements like solar panels. It is clear that a system needs to be implemented in order to remove lunar dust to keep the output power of the solar panel at a satisfactory level. This paper develops the proof...

The goal of this thesis is to develop a ROS package that facilitates the control and navigation of a Duckiebot robot. With the rise of robot swarms the need for autonomous charging system for robots is increasing. An implementation for decentralised autonomous behaviour for a Duckiebot for a wireless charging system in a Duckietown environment...

du Plessis, Nicolaas (author), Roos, Martijn (author)
This thesis aims to solve the problem of designing the hardware for a wireless charging system to be used for keeping an autonomous robot swarm alive. Previous designs available to us lacked essential safety features and were very specific in their application. Current wireless charging specifications are also not sufficient to cater to the...

One of the major challenges faced by future robotic and human missions to Mars and the Moon is the presence of atmospheric dust. The Lunar Zebro rover which is intended to walk on the Moon is powered by solar panel. Due to its surrounding terrain, which mostly consists of small particles, the rover may be a potential target for dust accumulation...

Unmanned underwater vehicles benefit from communication with a high data rate on relatively small distances (under 100 m). Existing communication methods are not able to provide this or present other shortcomings. Therefore, this bachelor end project focuses on a new type of underwater communication, quasi-static electric field communication....

Makinwa, Soji (author), van der Laan, David (author)
In this report the analysis of underwater communication using electric quasi-static fields is undertaken, in which key aspects that influence the performance the communication between a transmitting and receiving electrode is examined. A mathematical model was proposed for the transmission and reception of the quasistatic field and the expected...

As electromagnetic waves cannot propagate sufficiently far in water, underwater communication is mainly performed using either acoustics or optics. However, none of these technologies have been proven to be completely effective in every situation. Therefore, research in new underwater communication systems can still bring large benefits to a...

This thesis’s objective was to re-design a weight sensor readout system for Intralox, an international manufacturer of conveyor belts and equipment. Intralox’s current implementation is expensive, too complicated, and inaccurate. After considering several possible readout implementations, an inductively coupled solution with a frequency-based...

This thesis presents a resonant sensor circuit design that converts the deformation of a load cell in a conveyor belt into a change in resonance frequency. The sensor is inductively coupled to a reader circuit using planar PCB inductor coils. A sensor circuit was designed, fitted on a square PCB with 14.14 mm side length. The circuit consists of...

In this thesis, the design of a frequency analysis system for conveyor belt weighing systems is designed. The objective of the thesis is to detect a change in resonance frequency, caused by a change of pressure applied to a sensor. The design features a resolution of 10 000 discrete frequency levels in a bandwidth of 0.5 MHz. Noise division of a...

In this report the finger vibrotactile subsystem of the SoftGlove wearable haptic feedback glove is discussed. This system is an upgrade over the vibrotactile feedback that the current SenseGlove haptic feedback glove provides. The designed system consists of a linear resonant actuator (LRA) on each finger, which is controlled by a dedicated LRA...

Vette, Marek (author)
This thesis is part of the development of a sensor system for measuring currents in the Nuna solar car. A big problem within this system is the processing of incoming sensor data. Therefore, a solution in the form of a sensor-data-processing-unit was proposed, with its primary focus on the analog-to-digital conversion. The converter should not...

This thesis covers the research, design process and testing of a new current sensor for the Nuon Solar Team. Hall effect and magnetoresistive based current sensors are investigated and compared to a shunt resistor<br/>based current sensor. It will become clear that for the needs of the Nuon Solar Team, a shunt resistor based current sensor is...

In this thesis, we describe the design process of a distance sensing system for the Deci Zebro swarm robots. We use a technique that transmits a radio frequency message and a ultrasonic pulse concurrently. Due to the difference in propagation speed of both signals, the distance could be measured using time difference of arrival (TDOA). A cone...
