2023 - 2024

This quarter, I took CSE 478 - Autonomous Robotics. Throughout the class, we worked with the MuSHR rally car system to drive autonomous routes. We learned about the fundamental components of an autonoumous system: modeling, localization, control, and planning. The end project was to drive the robot from one end of the building to the other end of the building. I had a lot of fun in this class because learning about autonomous movement in robotics was new to me despite being in robotics for many years at this point. The coursework was definitely challenging at times, especially because there was a lot of math during the lectures that I wasn't so familiar with, but I really enjoyed implementing the algorithms on the car itself and seeing the results of my efforts through watching the car move around. I look forward to implementing my own autonomous systems in the future with my new knowledge.
