  • Performed optical mappings on an x86 chipset with GPU Nvidia
  • Conducted radar mappings and avoidance detection using an AWR1642BOOST-ODS sensor evaluation board
  • Set up a DJI Matrice 300RTK UAV platform

 

University of Gent:

  • Worked on and optimised the global flight path planning using A* and visibility graphs, TSPTW, 2D, 3D and 4D

 

 

 

Thales:
