Because GRAVL aims to create undergraduate research platforms capable of supporting a wide variety of projects, the team always has more projects than directed student-hours in a semester. This page serves as a parking lot for project ideas that can be tackled by future student teams, along with possible resources for those projects. These ideas can be developed into project proposals for upcoming semesters as necessary.
- Re-design Electrical Safety System: Re-wire EStop system to minimize interference with OPC and cut off motor power.
- Electrical motor shutoff (if potentiometer resistance gets too low or too high, motor power is disconnected)
-
Lightweight Visual Odometry for Mobile Robots: Implement visual odometry system for tractor using ROS-based algorithm based on paper from Rawashdeh Research Group (link)
-
Slip detection
-
Obstacle detection and avoidance
-
Demo behaviors
- Gestures
- Facial recognition
-
Fix teleop code (make controls more intuitive)
-
Create GUI for operator
-
ROSify backup camera
- Mill out hitch actuator part
- Waterproofing
- Re-do steering system
- RTK GPS Base Station Construction: Mount and waterproof all PCBs and wiring inside RTK GPS base station enclosure.
- Giant antenna
- Make board to carry gps without trailer
- Steering Angle Sensor: Design and mount a sensing system to directly measure the tractor's steering angle.
- Velocity Pedal Sensor: Design and mount a sensing system to directly measure the tractor's velocity pedal angle.
- Add waterproof connectors

- Tractor demo behaviors (follow, hand gestures, face detection)
- Move this list to the space somewhere
- Print keyboard holder
- Fix seat headrest
- Add grip tape to foot rests
