Projekthistorie

Projects TRIPLE-nanoAUV 1 & TRIPLE-GNC

Institute for Automatic Control, RWTH Aachen University

Industrie und Maschinenbau

50-250 Mitarbeiter

Design, construction, and validation of a fully autonomous miniature autonomous underwater vehicle (“nanoAUV”) for under-ice exploration in Antarctica.

Development, simulation, and implementation of the vehicle’s Guidance, Navigation, and Control (GNC) system. Planning of Antarctic field test campaigns in close collaboration with marine and space scientists.

Own contributions:
  1. Project management and coordination
  2. Development of a navigation filter for the GNC in C++
  3. Simulation and application in ROS 2 / Gazebo
  4. Deployment on an onboard computer with a RISC-V processor

Projekte GALILEOnautic 1, 2 und 2+

Institute for Automatic Control, RWTH Aachen University

Industrie und Maschinenbau

Autonomous Navigation and Optimized Maneuvering of Cooperating Vessels in Safety-Critical Areas

Successful fully automated harbor entry of the research vessel “Deneb”, including autonomous docking maneuvers.
Executed collision scenarios with Deneb, the USV “MESSIN”, and the experimental catamaran “BeLa” in the port of Rostock.


Own contributions:
  1. Developed the navigation filter for the GNC in MATLAB/Simulink and deployed it on a dSPACE MicroAutoBox
  2. Designed and implemented a portable pilot assistance system for navigation in C++, deployed on an ARM Cortex processor
