Research interests

In general, I am interested in making mobile robots work better in the real world. Most of the robots that exist today are unreliable and nonperforming in real environments. Even in the lab environment most mobile robots suffer nearly constant failures. Towards this end, I am currently conducting research in the area of robot reliability. We are developing analytical models for the reliability of robots, robot teams, and robot missions.

Research interest keywords

field robotics, human-computer interaction, mechatronics, mobile robots, planning, space robotics, and systems engineering

Current Labs & Groups [Past labs]

Tele-Supervised Autonomous Robotics - Research in the T-SAR lab focusses on providing end-to-end tools for telesupervision of autonomous robots.
 

Current Projects [Past projects]

Reliability of Mobile Robot Teams - We are developing analytical tools which enable the prediction of robotic mission failure given mission specifications and robot component reliability data.
Telesupervised Adaptive Ocean Sensor Fleet - We are developing a HAB Investigation Telesupervised Adaptive Sensor System (HABITASS) to address the limitations of existing systems.
