Past Projects [Current Projects]
		Abacus: Automated Tree Measurement We are developing low cost methods of nursery tree inventory automation.
		As-Built Survey Project (ABS) We are investigating the real-time monitoring of construction sites.
		Automated Turf Management This project deals with automated management and mowing of large areas of turf, such as golf courses, sports fields, and parks
		Autonomous Loading System (ALS) Developing technologies to improve the productivity and reduce the cost of mass excavation.
		Autonomous Mobile Assembly (ACE) The ACE project is concerned with autonomous mobile assembly.
		DEPTHX: Deep Phreatic Thermal Explorer (DEPTHX) The DEPTHX: Deep Phreatic Thermal Explorer project is developing an autonomy for underwater explorers to enable them to map their environment and plan and execute science investigations. The DEPTHX vehicle will explore the flooded caverns of the Zacaton Cenote in Mexico in 2006.
		Distributed Robot Architectures (DIRA) The primary objective of this project is to develop fundamental capabilities that enable multiple, distributed, heterogeneous robots to coordinate tasks that cannot be accomplished by the robots individually.
		EnviroBlimp This project is investigating the use of a solar powered, autonomous airship for extended duration environmental sampling missions.
		Mars Autonomy Long-distance marsrover navigation with minimal human intervention.
		Tartan Racing Carnegie Mellon University is teaming with General Motors to compete in the 2007 DARPA Urban Challenge.
		Transitional Unmanned Ground Vehicle (TUGV) Cross Country Navigation
		Unmanned Ground Vehicle for Security (Terrascout) We are developing autonomous ATVs to secure borders and facility perimeters.
		Urban Challenge
		VISTA On the Vista project we are developing devices that image upto a full 360 degrees in azimuth. The imagery we are getting is ideal for estimation of egomotion (localization) as well as for extracting shape from a sequence of images.
		Xavier Perceptual, reasoning and learning abilities in autonomous mobile robots
