2. Introduction Designing Control Software for autonomous obstacle course navigating vehicle. –Must navigate from waypoint to waypoint –Must use LIDAR, GPS, Digital Compass, and Camera to determine movement around the course –Must stay within lane lines and avoid obstacles in the completion lane

3. Overall Progress Hardware –GPS IS FIXED. YAY! –Still not ready for competition Motor controllers aren’t finished yet Software Testing –Algorithm simulated by the Mechanical Engineering team Demo Video –Done User Manual –Done

4. Demo Video

5. User Manual Over the required 4 x TeamSize pages (16) Details the –Goal of the project –Current status of the project –Navigation algorithms used –Image processing algorithms used –Work still needed to be done

6. Lessons Learned Hardware fails –Often Simulate early, simulate often Collaboration tools are useful –SVN is a life saver Programming in C# Using Computer Vision functions in C# –Open CV library is useful and saves time
