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...

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...

This paper analyzes how flocking behavior in fish can be used to develop target protection algorithms. This starts from the hypothesis that fish aggregate into coordinated flocks in order to protect themselves from predatory attacks. In order to test the protection capabilities of fish, a Prey-Predator instance is developed in which faults are...

This study examines the effects of holograms when used for online learning. The research question is: "How does a holographic teacher projection affect engagement of the students with the learning material?". The engagement of students was compared in different lectures. The base lecture was a zoom lecture. The holographic lectures were a VR...

Robotic swarms provide a great many uses within a world increasingly relying on autonomous systems. Alas these swarms are also very vulnerable to faults, even the smallest fault can cripple the performance of a whole swarm. Such a fault could be one of several types; those that have to do with sensors, communication, ... This paper will try to...

Distance learning brings all sorts of advantages. The ability to follow lectures at home can save people transportation costs and time. Teaching through videoconferencing software such as Zoom is one of the methods to learn remotely. To explore new and better teaching methods, the possibility of using a telepresence robot is investigated. To...

In this paper, we explore the creation of control algorithms for swarms of robots playing the role of either predator or prey in an environment filled with static obstacles. The paper devel- ops on a famous flock simulation model proposed by Craig Reynolds called boids. The paper analyzes a zero-sum game situation, in which one swarm of robots,...

Robot soccer competitions have been around for a while and have been a great environment to develop AI algorithms in. One of these environments is the AI world cup. The AI world cup environment is a virtual environment where two teams with five robots each play a soccer match. This paper focuses on defending the attacker that is carrying the...

The amount of people dealing with dementia is rising globally. The amount of caretakers is, however, not. Therefore, technological aids are needed to support people dealing with dementia and relieve the stress on their caretakers. Current solutions provide tracking of people with dementia. Also, different robots exist that provide people with...

The core challenge of the BedBasedEcho BEP project is to create an algorithm to find the heart, and apply it on a robotic echocardiography solution. The team has found multiple complex solutions that are related to this problem, and has extracted useful information from these solutions to apply to this problem. However, some of these complex...

Our challenge was to define a format for a mission plan, and develop an application which allows the users of the robot to create a mission plan effectively. This application should assist the user in the process of creating a mission plan as much as possible. Our client was Allseas who was already the sponsor of the LOBSTER project. During the...

The logistics industry is being modernized using information technology and robots. This change encompasses a new set of challenges in warehouses. Recently, some companies have started using robot fleets to sort products and parcels. This thesis studies those systems, and researches the combinatorial problems that arise within them. Three main...

The development of swarm robotics strives for resilience, a key factor in this is energy supply. Without energy a robot swarm cannot operate, so a self sustaining power management system is of great importance. In this thesis, the design of the power management system control hardware and firmware for the new DeciZebro is discussed. The power...

The DeciZebro is a six-legged autonomous robot is being developed by the Zebro team at the TU Delft. The robot should become autonomous and be able to "feed" itself like a real animal. Currently, it is only possible to charge the DeciZebro using a laptop charger. The goal is to allow the robot to charge itself without human intervention using a...

Robots play an increasingly large role in society and some material already exists that allows children to program robots in elementary school. However, this material often neglects the interactive capabilities of modern robots. The aim of this project is to teach children how to write interactive programs for a robot. For this purpose, a NAO...

A large problem that primary schools face is that the ratio of pupils to teachers is too high, the class sizes are too large and this makes it difficult for a single teacher to have a good oversight of how the development of a given child is going. The aim of Interactive Robotics is to tackle this problem by bringing robots into the classroom to...
