Teleoperated Search-and-Rescue Robot

NUS CG2111A final project • Jan 2025 – Apr 2025

Overview

Designed for a remote operator to control the robot using a keyboard from a separate room. The operator perceives the environment via sensors and mapping, searches for targets, delivers a care package, and returns to a safe zone.

What I built

  • Integrated LiDAR + SLAM, RPi Camera, HC‑SR04 for mapping and obstacle detection.
  • Integrated BNO‑085 IMU for yaw/heading estimates to turn accurately.
  • Developed low-level firmware using bare-metal programming on Arduino Mega.
  • Implemented TLS encryption for secure remote operation.
