Remora Sensor Suite Enclosure Redesign for Weatherproofing

The Remora Sensor Suite, developed by LIVESENS Inc., is a modular system designed to collect real-time environmental and movement data from vehicles. The current prototype enclosure needs a redesign to ensure it meets the demands of outdoor deployment. The primary challenge is to create an enclosure that is durable, waterproof, and capable of withstanding various environmental conditions such as rain, dust, vibration, and temperature fluctuations. Additionally, the enclosure must be designed for easy and secure attachment to a variety of vehicle types, including options like rooftop bars, suction mounts, or permanent brackets. The design should also minimize aerodynamic drag and added vehicle height while allowing easy access for maintenance tasks such as camera cleaning and SD card swapping. The project aims to balance robustness, manufacturability, and ease of maintenance, ultimately bringing the updated design from concept to prototyping.

Real-Time Computer Vision

The objective of this project is to develop a real-time computer vision solution for accurately counting people in a moving environment. Using advanced image processing techniques and leveraging both C++ and Python, learners will design, implement, and optimize algorithms that can detect, track, and count individuals as they move through a scene. The project will culminate in a working prototype that demonstrates robust and real-time performance, even under varying lighting conditions and dynamic backgrounds, providing a practical solution for applications such as crowd monitoring and public space management.
