Fall Validation Demo

Demonstration 1 — Yamaha ATV

What you will see

  • Fully functional leader follower system with two Yamaha ATVs

Live Demo

Success Criteria

  1. The follower platform should detect the leader in ≥95% of the frames
  2. The follower will estimate the relative pose of the leader within 0.1 m accuracy
  3. The follower will estimate leader’s velocity to an accuracy of 0.1 m/s
  4. The follower will localize itself within 0.1 m accuracy
  5.  The follower will follow the leader with a head-to-tail longitudinal distance of 6.00 m ±1.00 m
  6. The follower will follow the leader with a center-to-center lateral offset of 0.98 m ±0.50 m

We met all criteria above. The following slideshow includes explicit validations of Perception and Control subsystems in a fully functional leader-following system on ATV.

Demonstration 2 — Zamboni

What you will see

  • Fully functional leader follower system on Zamboni
  • Obstacle detection and avoidance

Live Demo

Success Criteria

  1. The follower platform should detect the leader in ≥95% of the frames
  2. The follower will estimate the relative pose of the leader within 0.1 m accuracy
  3. The follower will estimate leader’s velocity to an accuracy of 0.1 m/s
  4. The follower will localize itself within 0.1 m accuracy
  5.  The follower will follow the leader with a head-to-tail longitudinal distance of 6.00 m ±1.00 m
  6. The follower will follow the leader with a center-to-center lateral offset of 0.98 m ±0.50 m
  7. The follower will detect the obstacle kept in its path and stop before it hits the obstacle.

We met all criteria above. The following slideshow includes explicit validations of Control, Drive-by-Wire, and Obstacle Detection subsystems on Zamboni.
