Build two driverless car-like robot vehicles scanning an "ice-rink", resurfacing every location by spiral codes.

Research challenges

           Quantifying camera (localization) errors in stitching (textureless) ice images from different cameras
           Obstacle detection on ice with camera on thin clients 
           Automatic parameter determination to construct scanning paths  

Implementation Challenges:

            Follow walls at precise distance, using proximity sensor.
            Replicate following-walls behaviour with ceiling camera, and quantify error
            Design simultaneous scanning patterns automatically for 1, and 2 robots.

The project is suggested by Bigsafe Technology AB.
