Project Details
Each year, National Instruments (NI) sponsors a competition to showcase the robotics capabilities of students by building autonomous robots using one of their microcontroller and FPGA products. In 2016, the competition focuses on the theme 'Hospital of the future' where team robots will have to complete tasks such as navigating to different rooms in a hospital setting to deliver medicine while avoiding various obstacles. This project investigates the use of the NI FPGA/LabView platform for autonomous vehicles. The group will apply for the competition in March 2016. More information about the NI robotics competition is found at http://australia.ni.com/ni-arc LabView programming knowledgement would be a key advantage in this project. This project builds on the platform designed and built in 2015
