Description

visual obstacle avoidance (optical flow etc) - potentially 100 loc, lots of freedom

Idea:

  • We write a repo with a mujoco sim which produces lidar and a costmap.
  • We show the costmap in a pygame window.
  • Ask people to implement a simple nav, whereby if someone clicks on the costmap, the robot navigates there.
  • The task has a lot of depth. You can make a trivial implementation or you can do something very sophisticated. There are a lot of decisions the candidate has to justify.
  • We can also introduce a moving cube in the sim so people have to account for changes.

Research direction

The proposal describes a new repository with a MuJoCo simulation producing lidar and a costmap, a pygame view, click-to-navigate behavior, and optionally a moving cube. Start by clarifying the task scope and expected interview experience, then define what the simulation and navigation task must include before implementation begins.
