IRPS

The purpose of the project is to provide mobile robotics platforms with advanced mapping and navigation systems based on a very accurate positioning and 3D measurement technology. The 3D measurement technology, named LIMS (LIDAR Imaging and Measurement System) is based on an innovative concept of real time measurement of position in presence of sparse regular objects. The measurement technology principles based on three eye-safe laser systems were originated in Israeli Aircraft Industries and are patent pending. Project goals: The main objective of the project is to develop and integrate an accurate 3D sensing system as a modular component for robotics platforms, enabling fast dense mapping of large areas, populated with sparse objects. The project will develop and demonstrate the LIMS on high demanding application as an Intelligent Robotic Porter System (IRPS) to help porting & guiding the public in airport areas.
