Riassunto (Italiano)
The aim of this thesis is to detect obstacles and threats through laser vision detection techniques based on the latest generation of LiDAR sensors. This work dealt the problems of autonomous navigation, the reconstruction of the geometry through point cloud, the real-time analysis of interferences, remote driving and interaction with delocalized subjects.
This thesis is part of a wider collaboration with the Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna and the Italian railway network, called "Treno-drone". It is an autonomous ultra-light vehicle for the detection of obstacles along the tracks and for the measurement of the clearance gauge.
