DaleKen - IEEE ENCS Autonomous Navigational Mobile Humanoid Robot Project

Based on our IEEE mission and vision of creating in-house IEEE member experts in Robotics and Automation, our team had triggered "DaleKen - IEEE ENCS Autonomous Navigational Mobile Humanoid Robot Project" next phase of humanoid project, increasing Ken’s humanoid intelligence with mobility and further with autonomous navigational intelligence.

Daleken has been designed with a set of simple and complex requirements, with a long term vision of everyone from high school students, professionals, hobbyists and seniors can take part, learn, add contributions as hobbyist, use and control the system in a controlled environment.

Our team primarily involving IEEE and guest members has done significant work during after-hours at Forge Initiave premises and has created an initial prototype version of physical Daleken with system components involving drive wheel mechanism, basic mobility and vision system already integrated. Daniel McDonald and team will be providing the high level system architecture, demo and walkthrough of the project. Daniel is an impressive IEEE member who has significantly, consistently contributed to IEEE humanoid project. Rodney Radford will briefly talk about arduino control on the drive system and Mahesh Balasubramaniam will briefly talk about the autonavigation related vision system architecture.

Our IEEE Daleken, humanoid projects are primarily non-profit learning platforms to foster the STEM activities among the professionals, students, senior hobbyists as well as future generations.

IEEE R&A chapter strongly recommends every interested IEEE member to join and volunteer for DaleKen and humanoid project. We plan to have physical Daleken Robot during our presentation. We always encourage those interested people to volunteer for opportunities in continuous integration, calibration, optimization and autonomous navigation logic with a handful of sensors (Ultrasonics, Lidar, IR depth camera vision, wheel encoders).
