Project Scope & Requirements

Define your capstone project scope and requirements.

Project Ideas​

1. Mobile Manipulation Robot​

Build a robot that combines navigation and object manipulation:

  • Navigate autonomously to target locations
  • Perceive and grasp target objects using VLMs
  • Handle unexpected objects and obstacles

2. Collaborative Assembly System​

Implement a robot that assists humans in assembly tasks:

  • Understand verbal instructions from human collaborators
  • Plan and execute cooperative manipulation
  • Monitor safety constraints

3. Warehouse Automation System​

Design a robot for inventory management:

  • Navigate complex warehouse environments
  • Identify and retrieve items based on descriptions
  • Adapt to dynamic obstacles and map changes

Evaluation Criteria​

Projects will be evaluated on:

  • Functionality: Does the system achieve its goals?
  • Robustness: Does it handle edge cases gracefully?
  • Code Quality: Is the codebase well-organized and documented?
  • Integration: Are multiple systems properly integrated?
  • Novelty: Does the project demonstrate creative problem-solving?
