PID, MPC, A-star, EKF, MRAC, Webots, Control Theory
Implemented multiple control strategies (PID, pole placement, MPC) for autonomous vehicle simulation and fault-tolerant drone control with impaired motor function.
Autonomous systems require robust control across diverse scenarios. Vehicle navigation needs path planning with localization, while drones must handle motor failures.
Built autonomous vehicle controller in Webots with A-star pathfinding and Extended Kalman Filter for SLAM. Designed Model Reference Adaptive Control (MRAC) and MPC for drone fault tolerance with impaired motor.
