Week 8: Almooost there!
This week, we refined the details of the system, interconnected ROS with MAS, and finalized the article. We conducted the final tests and validations.

Week 7: On the grind!
This week, we continued to make progress on the project, completing tasks and overcoming obstacles. The use of a LedLight in GazeboSim was not possible, so simulating the use/presence of this light was adopted. Our robot was already able to walk to the section where cleaning is required, perform the cleaning, and return to the…

Week 6: Detecting the world!
In this week, we saw different methods signals are transmitted and how signal processing is done. We talked about negotiations and conflicts between agents, how to solve the conflicts, the types of negotiations how to do them. We learned how to build and code a new world. Also we learn to build QR code and…

Week 5: Gathering Intel
In this week, it was given to us many resources to explore and apply to our project. In Intelligent Environments, we learned how to apply computer vision, place and interact with sensors in simulated environment which can prove to be useful in monitoring or detecting defects in solar panels. Additionally, in the Multi-Agent Systems we…

Week 4: The turtle is moving!
In this week, regarding Smart Environments, we started lerning about gazebo and talked about all the implementation of the turtleslim project. We disccussed how to implement the functionalities to make the turle move to waypoints, as well as moving a robot in gazebo. We’ve been getting to know more about ROS, its implementation and functionalities.…

Week 3: Panels
This week we discussed another project proposal, which consisted in having an array of solar panels and with the expected power generation and the real power generation determine if the solar panel is underperforming. If this situation becomes affirmative we would have a robot inspect the panels cleaning them or register that the giving panel…

Week 2: New beginnings
During Week 2, the team is still getting to terms with the concepts introduced in classes, and attempting to come up with a problem that can be solved with what they know, and what they’ll learn.On the Smart Environments class, we learned about Mobile Robotics and the ROS 2 software, for which we developed a…

Week 1: What’s this? And what’s THAT?!
On this first week, we are just starting with the new classes, last week were the exams of the subjects of challenge 3.In this week we simply had introductory classes to each of the subjects. We’ve learned that we are going to use robotics and multi-agent systems to design and solve this challenge. The professors…
