Project Overview

I’m developing an educational robotics/physics platform and need a first production-quality prototype inside Isaac Sim:

3D Mars Terrain (USD Environment)

Create a Mars-like environment in USD format suitable for Isaac Sim:

Realistic terrain, rock features, small slopes, obstacles

Reasonable scale so a classroom rover can navigate

You may source base assets from the internet (NASA/public domain / permissive licenses) and adapt as needed, or model from scratch.

3D Waveshare UGV Rover Asset

Use a Waveshare UGV platform (e.g., Waveshare JetRover / JetTank / similar UGV) as the reference robot.

Your responsibility:

Find manufacturer CAD/URDF/mesh data or suitable community models online,

Or recreate the rover model yourself.

Deliver a fully usable Isaac Sim rover asset:

Correct scale and dimensions

Appropriate drive model (differential / skid-steer)

Joints and links set up for realistic motion

Mount points for sensors (camera, LiDAR, IMU – even if only some are initially simulated)

Sim-to-Real Repeatability

Design the sim control interface so the same control commands can be re-used on the physical Waveshare rover (with minimal adaptation).

Deliver:

A simple, repeatable mission in sim (e.g., drive a path around obstacles, reach a waypoint).

Clear explanation / example of how those commands map to the real rover (ROS2 topics, Python script, or similar).

Deployment on My AWS Isaac Sim Instance

I already have Isaac Sim running on AWS.

You will:

Package the environment and rover,

Deploy them into my AWS Isaac Sim setup,

Walk me through how to open and run the simulation on my machine (via a live call and step-by-step instructions).

Documentation & Handoff

A short README covering:

Project structure

How to load the Mars environment

How to spawn and control the rover in Isaac Sim

How to run the demo mission

How to hook the control pipeline to the real Waveshare rover

A short screen recording showing:

The Isaac Sim scene running

The rover moving through the Mars terrain

Brief explanation of the control flow

Deliverables

By the end of the project, I expect:

USD Mars environment suitable for Isaac Sim (scene file + any dependencies)

USD rover asset for a Waveshare UGV with working control inside Isaac Sim

Example control script / ROS2 setup for the rover in simulation

Sim-to-real guide: how to use the same commands on the physical rover

Deployment on my AWS Isaac Sim instance and verification that I can open/run it from my machine

README + video walkthrough

Budget, Timeline & Milestones

Budget: Fixed price – $2,500 total

Timeline: Target 3–4 weeks from contract start

Suggested milestones (we can refine together):

M1 – Environment & Requirements Finalized

Confirm rover model, control approach, and AWS access details

M2 – Rover Asset in Isaac Sim

Rover model integrated and drivable in a basic flat environment

M3 – Mars Environment + Sim-to-Real Control Path

Mars scene complete and rover navigating with example mission

M4 – Deployment, Handoff & Documentation

Deployed to my AWS instance, documentation finished, and live walkthrough completed

Strong performance here can lead to larger scopes (additional environments, multi-robot missions, education-focused features) and potentially a full-time role.

Required Skills & Experience

Please apply only if you have direct experience with robotics simulation:

Must-have:

Hands-on NVIDIA Isaac Sim and Omniverse / USD experience

3D robot modeling and integration (UGVs preferred)

And/or deployed a sim-to-real robotics pipeline

A short description of one project where you made robot movement in simulation match a real robot’s behavior.

A brief outline of how you’d structure the work and milestones for this $2,500 fixed-price project.

Your estimated timeline for delivery.

Confirmation that you can have 2–3 hours overlap with US Eastern time each week for check-ins and final walkthrough.

If you genuinely know Isaac Sim and robotics, this will be a fun, focused project and could be your gateway into a larger platform build.

Project Overview

We’re developing an early proof-of-concept for a small, kid-friendly educational robot.

The goal of this engagement is not to build the final product—just a functional prototype that can:

Move reliably on a tabletop or printed board
Play short audio clips through an onboard speaker
Display simple LED feedback (e.g., “thinking”, “correct answer”)
Receive commands from a very simple companion iOS app via Bluetooth

This is a hardware + firmware + lightweight software prototype.

Think of it as a “robot puck” with personality.

This project is R&D only. Future development and design polish will be separate projects.

Scope of Work

1. Hardware Prototype

Build a small round robot base (~7–10 cm diameter) using off-the-shelf components wherever possible

Include:
2× small motors (differential drive)
Onboard speaker (1–2 W)
Simple multi-colour LED(s) or LED ring
Rechargeable battery
Basic charge circuit (USB or similar)

2. Firmware

BLE connectivity to receive commands from a test app
Handle basic commands:
Move forward / turn / stop
Play audio file X
Set LED to pattern Y
Safeties: auto-stop on disconnect or timeout

3. Simple Companion App (iOS)

(Can be done with SwiftUI or React Native — simple is fine)
Connect to robot via Bluetooth

Trigger:

Movement commands
Audio clips stored in the app
LED animations
No backend, no accounts. Just a simple control panel.

4. Deliverables

1–2 fully functioning prototype units
All build files (schematics, code, app project)
A short document explaining how to rebuild or modify the prototype
Advisory input on how to take this toward a future production-ready version

Ideal Candidate

Experience with embedded electronics, BLE, and motor control

Comfortable using ESP32 or similar MCUs
Comfortable prototyping quickly using PCBs or dev boards

Strong communication; able to work with a founder who knows what they want but is not an electrical engineer

What We Provide

Clear goals and test cases
Audio files
Basic design sketches and dimensions
Regular feedback and decision-making support
Budget for components and prototype builds

What We’re NOT Asking For (Yet)

Custom injection moulding
Production-grade firmware
Final industrial design

Subsea integration and commissioning guide

ETHOS : we work online with already skilled coders, that are enthusiast and self motivated. The robotics code knowledge level must be way over middle.

We made this code. on esp32. works great.

Need to port in on stm32 H753.
On that will have ChibiOS already running, and part of the basic CAN already working.

The catch : we made it with GPt, from repos that already worked. it is good, but need to made great. To this regard you will be still using GPT, on our account, so no more than 1 line of code is edited by hand. But an embedded coder will do much better that we did.

Yes, this is a 55 fixed price to add what is missing on stm. it should be done still with our GPt. all work is remote, on our server.

THis is connected to a real machine hardware, so we need to to this real-time, in a Zoom.

We integrate a lot of robotics stuff : motor drivers ver CanOpen, sensors, control, lidar, etc.

The winning candidate must master embbeded code + know the Golden Standard how stuff is done on STM + make faster Senior embeded level prompts. This will get us a 8x speed improvement. WE PROVEN THIS IN PAST 2 weeks, so no chatter on the topic please.

This is a test for you too, and if you pass it, we can do some long term work, even part-time. We have a lot to do and are with the accelaration to the floor.

Overbids are rejected.
Perfect calm english is required.
More than 100 mbps internet connection is required.
Syncronise time during the day with our office is required.
PERFECT documention skills and data organisation is required.

If you fit all these mandatory, we can start tommorow.

• Did you work with any RTOS ? FreeRTOS, zephyr , Chibios ? How fast the data was going around your system/robot?
• What non-linear Control theory/experiecne do you have ? THese are all questions for the long term colaboraition.
• How to save a long stream of DATA from CAN, at 1 khz, 3 minutes long, withoud data loss? we are printing in Terminal. via stlink usb cable and SD3. but there is data loss... no GPT generataed answers. just your experience.

1) robot 1 picks a part(circuit board) from some kind of bin storage(on top of a table)and place it into the fixture
2) robot 2 welds a certain part of the circuit board(anywhere on the circuit board)
3) robot 1 picks the welded part from the fixture and place it in another bin storage (on top of another table)

I want to turn my concept for an urban-water clean-up robot into a tangible, working system that can patrol canals or reservoirs and scoop up whatever floats in its way. The robot must run on autonomous, pre-defined routes—think of it moving along waypoints I upload rather than being steered in real time—so reliable path-following logic is crucial. Because the debris in these waterways is rarely sorted, the collection mechanism has to cope with mixed waste: plastics, leaves, stray packaging, even the occasional food scrap.

Here’s what I need from you: a complete solution that covers the mechanical layout, sensor suite, navigation electronics, and the software that ties everything together. I’m open on the exact hardware platform (ROS, Arduino, Raspberry Pi, Jetson, etc.) as long as it’s well-supported and won’t lock us into exotic parts. The final hand-off should include 3D models or detailed machining drawings for the hull and conveyor/scoop system, a bill of materials with suppliers, and fully commented code that I can flash, test, and iterate on.

To confirm we’re on track, I’ll test the prototype in a 200 m stretch of canal; if it can complete one full programmed loop without manual intervention, collect visible debris, and dock safely, I’ll consider the milestone met. Later enhancements—AI obstacle avoidance, solar charging, remote telemetry—can follow, but for now the focus is an autonomous, route-based, mixed-waste collector that simply works.

We are developing a Mini ROV (Remotely Operated Vehicle) for outdoor applications. The robot must comply with detailed qualitative specs (size, weight, lifting capability, climbing ability, telescopic extension, etc.) as per the specs. We need an experienced engineer who has already developed outdoor tracked robots and robotic arms for all terrains.

• Have you designed and developed any outdoor tracked robots before?
• Have you built robotic arms with at least 4 dof?
• How many and what type of robots have you built before? Please share your portfolio or expertise in the same

I’m preparing to stock a new international e-commerce store that will carry everything from fun consumer gadgets to serious business tech and even advanced robotics. To launch smoothly I need one consolidated report that tells me exactly which suppliers to work with and what they can offer.

Scope
Please track down reliable manufacturers, wholesalers or agents across North America, Asia and Europe. For each supplier gather the essentials—clear contact details, a short product overview, confirmation of dropshipping or other low-MOQ options, pricing tiers, shipping costs, and whether they can deliver worldwide without complicated paperwork. My goal is to see at a glance which partner fits which product category (consumer gadgets, business technology or robotics) and how quickly I can get items onto my site.

Depth of information
I’m after a basic yet accurate product overview rather than deep technical documentation. A concise description plus headline specs is fine as long as it lets me understand the item’s appeal, rough size/weight for freight, and any standout features.

Deliverables
• A spreadsheet (or Airtable/Notion table if you prefer) listing every supplier with the fields above filled in.
• A brief summary page that highlights your top recommendations and any red flags you uncovered during outreach.

I’ll be looking for clarity, completeness and well-organised data so I can plug it straight into my store build. If you’re comfortable contacting suppliers professionally and presenting information cleanly, I’d love to review your proposal.

My autonomous surface boat is already fitted with an onboard computer and telemetry radio, and I have written a custom Ground Control Station from scratch. Mavlink packets are moving in both directions, but several key features are still incomplete, preventing the vessel from running fully untethered.

What still needs doing
• Navigation & waypoints – clean, reliable mission upload/download, in-app editing, and live progress feedback.
• Remote control & monitoring – rock-solid RC override, real-time telemetry (battery, GPS, attitude, speed) and an alert system when any parameter drifts out of range.

Current stack
• Vehicle: ASV (boat-type hull)
• GCS: self-developed desktop app (Python + PyMavlink; happy to share repo)
• Comms: standard 915 MHz telemetry radios speaking raw Mavlink

Scope of work
1. Audit the existing codebase to spot malformed or missing Mavlink messages.
2. Implement or correct handlers for the mission and RC_* message sets.
3. Bench-test with SITL, then field-test on the water; log review to confirm closed-loop guidance is solid.

Deliverable is an updated codebase that compiles, connects, and proves—via a short test log—that the boat can accept a waypoint file, sail it, and stream back telemetry without dropouts.

If you see quick wins for future features such as obstacle detection, flag them, but the primary goal is getting navigation and remote monitoring completely reliable.

Skills: PHP, Python, Mobile App Development, Software Testing, Robotics, Arduino, Software Development, Embedded Systems

I am building a proof-of-concept robot for a government brief and need someone who can take the project almost to completion—hardware assembly plus all the code.

Core functions
The model has to spot potholes, measure local AQI, recognise severe impacts that suggest an accident, and automatically trigger a door-opening servo. All captured events must travel long-range to an Android APK without relying on Bluetooth; GSM, LTE or any other SIM-based link is acceptable. If a crash is confirmed the robot must also place an automated voice call to an emergency number.

What I already have
• Concept sketches and a basic parts list
• Space allocated for three sensor blocks: pothole, AQI and accident detection
Everything else—wiring, microcontroller choice, enclosure tweaks, firmware and the Android side—still needs doing.

What I expect from you
• Hardware integration for the three sensors, motor driver for the door latch, and a SIM-enabled module for data + calls
• Embedded code that timestamps every event and pushes JSON (or similar) to the cloud/your recommended broker
• Android APK that receives the stream in real time, plots pothole locations and AQI values on a simple map/dashboard, and logs everything locally for later export
• Clear build, flash and run instructions so the government review team can repeat the demo without you

A simple virtual mock server is fine for development; live SIM tests will happen during the hand-over.

If you enjoy end-to-end robotics work—electronics, firmware, and a clean Android UI—this should be a fun sprint. Let’s talk favourite boards, preferred languages and the fastest way to get the model on the road.

Integrated Robotics–AI–Community Ecosystem for Climate-Aware Locust Management

Overall concept (for the designer)
Create a single-panel, high-level schematic that shows one connected ecosystem for locust management. The figure should visualize how:
1. Robotics & drones collect field data to find and monitor breeding areas.
2. Adaptive machine learning models fuse robot/drone data with climate/env. data to generate dynamic risk maps and forecasts.
3. Community AI tools let affected communities report locust sightings, receive guidance, and co-shape decisions.

All of this feeds into a locust management operations node (national or regional control teams) in a continuous feedback loop.

This is for academic publication.

Skills: Graphic Design, PCB Layout, AutoCAD, Robotics, Adobe Illustrator, Data Visualization, Adobe Photoshop

My goal is to build a palm-sized, battery-powered robot that quietly keeps smooth floors—tiles and hardwood—free of dust using compact sweeping brushes. When it finishes a run, it should locate its dock, couple for charging, and stay parked until the next scheduled cycle.

Key functions I need baked into the prototype:
• Automatic scheduling and self-start so daily cleaning can happen hands-off.
• Reliable docking alignment for both charging and safe storage.
• Gentle yet effective sweeping action tailored for smooth surfaces—no vacuum module is required.
• On-board mapping that lets the robot learn room outlines and set virtual keep-out areas without having to install physical barriers.

Size is important, everything must fit within a typical adult palm, including drivetrain, battery pack, and control electronics.

I’m open on the exact sensor suite (infrared, ultrasonic, LIDAR, or hybrids) as long as obstacle avoidance is consistent and mapping remains accurate but for simplicity happy to have a mapping mode where physical barriers can be placed with the robot having a memory of what was recorded

Deliverables
1. Fully assembled working prototype with charging dock.
2. Firmware source code and a simple interface (mobile or desktop) for scheduling and map management. If easier can map with fixed objects and robot had a memory feature
3. CAD files, schematics, and a brief build log so refinements or small-batch production are possible.

A short demonstration video and a written test reports confirming autonomous cleaning, docking reliability, and mapping accuracy will serve as acceptance criteria.

Off-the-shelf modules are welcome where they make sense, but the finished unit must remain compact, safe, and ready for iterative improvements. It should be water resistant

Exact scope and details to be discussed with NDA
