Autonomous Assistant

The goal of this research project is to develop an autonomous assistant capable of escorting guests to a room. The assistant greets the guest, engages them in conversation, and verbally takes their requests. While object/person recognition and navigation are processed locally, speech processing is handled online.

The assistant is implemented as an add-on to a Clearpath Dingo-O, featuring an NVIDIA Jetson Orin AGX and additional ultrasonic sensors for detecting glass walls.
The lower part of the head contains programmable eyes, a speaker, four microphones, and four cameras for 360-degree panoramic vision.
The upper part of the head contains a LiDAR sensor.
