Title High-Fidelity Simulation Platform Development for Robot Manipulation
Summary This project is focused on developing a high-fidelity simulation platform tailored for real-world robotic manipulation. The aim is to create a virtual environment where robots can plan and interact with various objects and scenarios, enabling effective programming, testing, validation, and fine-tuning of manipulation algorithms. The project will leverage advanced physics simulation techniques such as Unity/Isaac and visual rendering to accurately replicate real-world conditions. Students will work on integrating robotic models, virtual to real alignment, and vision sensors into the simulation, and deployment from simulation to real robot using robot language and PLC. This platform will be essential for accelerating development cycles by allowing experimentation and training in a simulated environment before deploying in real-world applications.

1. Design and implement high-fidelity simulation models for robotic systems and environments.
2. Integrate robotic sensors, vision modules, and controllers into the simulation platform.
3. Conduct testing and optimize the performance of simulation environments for realistic interactions.

Students should have a basic knowledge of C++ or Python programming. Familiarity with simulation platforms such as Isaac Sim, Gazebo, Unity, or PyBullet, and experience in robotics or control systems is preferred. Knowledge of ROS (Robot Operating System), PLC and physics-based modeling would be advantageous.
