VRGroup - Safety zone monitoring with depth sensor

Master Thesis

About This Topic

For a fully immersive VR system with haptic feedback, a separate safety monitoring system should be implemented. The system should rely on depth data provided by a depth sensor (e.g. Kinect, SwissRanger) and dynamically monitor a safety zone around a robotic arm.

Additional Information

Suggested Setup:

-) Unreal Engine

-) Depth sensor (e.g. http://hptg.com/industrial/)

-) C++, OpenCV, ROS
