The history of SHEP's development

Find out about how SHEP was originally made, using a number of microcontrollers, methods and designs. The project started in 2015 at a state school, and moved from there.

Gathering train data

We devised an experiment to gather more training data for my own bot, and see how current bots register data. We were not overly pleased with the result.

Exploring planetary terrain

In this project we explore different hardware options available for space exploration This started as a tracked rover controlled via a network.

Genetic algorithm robot walking optimization

Genetic Algorithms use random mutations to within a Genotype which is assessed using a fitness function. In this case fitness being the Genotype which walks the best.

Deep learning for autonomous navigation on a small robots

This project was part of the University of Sussex Junior Research Associate scheme

Bio-Inspired Navigation for Varied Terrain

This project uses the Wheg chassis developed in previous projects, however investigates aspects of autonomous navigation behaviours for traversing complex terrain.
