Thesis, Algorithms, Oral Defense: A Glimpse Of Thesis Life
Thesis of Computer Science students was harder than I thought. It’s a long and challenging road to the end of it all. All the while I thought it wouldn’t be so hard, as if its just one of our exercises in the laboratories. Seems like it’s the other way around.
Thesis Title Proposal: Autonomous Ground Vehicle for Advanced Military and Civilian Use using GPS Navigation
We’ve just passed our title proposal last two weeks. Before the defense, I was pretty nervous despite me having quite some background about it. Luckily, my dad is helping me with it. We have contacts to people who have the instruments and devices needed. So, we have not much of a problem when it comes to devices needed. I was also interested with the proposal because it involves trying to move the robot autonomously without any supervision of humans. Pretty cool isn’t it.
Anyways, back to the day of our Title Proposal. Our instructor/adviser wasn’t around to help us out during the process of the defense. It kind of let us down, knowing we will be doing it on our own. And we even thought we won’t be able to defend. But, fortunately, we were allowed to defend our thesis proposal, and it was more than I expected. We had panelists who I know are tough and I thought I will be having a really hard time explaining. But then, it went smoothly, and I was able to satisfy their questions as well. Although they thought it was too complicated for us to accomplish. I told them that me and my thesis groupmates can make it, but, still, they insisted it was impossible. So, they decided we focus on the algorithm, and just demonstrate that we are able to move the vehicle using a laptop.
So far, we haven’t started documenting yet. I’m pretty excited already, although nervous that I might not be able to finish it. But, I still believe I can. All I need is to exert more effort to make it successful. =D
Anyway, will be posting any further updates on our thesis progress. Probably even pictures of our progress. Hope all goes well!
Shoutout to thesis takers like me, especially my classmates: Go Go Go!! We can do it! XD
