  • Power controller for solar panels for optimum utilization 
    Udawatta, L; Harishan, K; Heendeniya, HKCB; Jayaweera, JAGK; Sivakaran, N [Conference-Abstract]
    The paper presents about studying and experimenting on optimal configuration of standalone solar panels, and the implementation of a control module named 'SOLAR OPTIMIZER' Optimal configuration of a ...
  • On the obstacle avoidance control of autonomous surface vessels 
    Jayendra, G; Kumarawadu, S; Piyasinghe, L [Conference-Abstract]
    This is an effort of employing obstacle avoidance algorithms for unmanned surface vehicles which are already developed for unmanned ground vehicles. Previously developed mathematical model and fuzzy-based navigational controller ...
  • A novel morphin-based obstacle avoidance control algorithm for USVs 
    Jayendra, G; Kumarawadu, S; Piyasinghe, L [Conference-Abstract]
    This is an effort of employing good obstacle avoidance algorithms for unmanned surface vehicles (USV) which are already developed for unmanned ground vehicles (UGV). Previously developed Morphin algorithm is utilized for ...
  • Object detection with Artificial neural networks combined with dyadic image downscaling using Haar transform 
    Fernando, WSP; Udawatta, L [Conference-Abstract]
    This paper describes the methodology for identifying a moving object by a fast dyadic image downscaling combined with a neural network (a multi layer perceptron). Given a sequence of images here we basically try to detect ...
  • An Active monocular platform for intelligent vehicles: Design and simulations 
    Piyasinghe, LP; Kumarawadu, S; Jayendra, G; Dharmapriya, K [Conference-Abstract]
    Intelligent vehicles have to perceive their environment in order to navigate and avoid collision. This capability is also important in other applications such as mobile robot navigation, Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) ...
  • Interactive collision avoidance controller- design and realization 
    Kumarawadu, S; Ransara, SHK; Dissanayake, ASJ; Ranasinghe, N; Azmil, MM [Conference-Abstract]
    This paper mainly discusses about the design and realization aspects of collision avoidance (CA) controller which has the capability of interaction. ln other words, the controllers can talk with each other while operating ...
