Thesis Topics

I am always looking for students who are interested to do a Bachelor/Master thesis with topics in computer vision, sensor fusion and Lego Mindstorms (and any combination of those).

Some possible topics:

Computer vision:

• Implementing analytic optimization techniques for spline surface tracking
• Enhancing an existing surface tracking approach using a Kalman filter
• Researching alternative optimization approaches for surface tracking

Mindstorms:

• Reliable and robust navigation algorithms for the Mindstorms NXT system

If any of these topics sound interesting to you, please contact me for further information.
