Abstract The Department of Defense (DOD) funds long-term basic research in a wide variety of scientific and engineering fields with a goal of exploiting new knowledge to enhance-and where possible, transform-future capabilities. DOD-funded research is[…]
Abstract This talk reports recent advances in underwater robotic vehicle research to enable novel oceanographic operations in extreme ocean environments, with focus on two recent novel vehicles developed by a team comprised of the speaker[…]
Abstract In 1998 we were asked by the local automotive industry to create a class to better train engineers to wirote embedded control software. We have now taught the class for 15 years at the[…]
Abstract Recent advances in computation, sensing, and hardware enable robotics to perform an increasing percentage of traditionally manual tasks in manufacturing. Yet, often the assembly mechanic cannot be removed entirely from the process. This provides[…]
Due to circumstances beyond our control, today’s seminar has been cancelled. Abstract As the world is getting instrumented with numerous sensors, cameras, and robots, there is potential to transform industries as diverse as[…]
Abstract The last few years have seen significant progress in our understanding of how one should structure multi-robot systems. New control, coordination, and communication strategies have emerged and, in this talk, we discuss some of[…]
Abstract Many inter-cardiac interventions are performed either via open-heart surgery, or using minimally invasive approaches, where instrumentation is introduced into the cardiac chambers via the vascular system or heart wall. While many of the latter[…]
Abstract Able bodied individuals can easily take for granted the dexterous capabilities of the human hand. Key to our ability to easily manipulate common objects are the rich sensory cues conveying force and object properties,[…]
