Past Projects [Current Projects]
		Asynchronous Teams of Autonomous Agents (A-Teams) An asynchronous team is a way of organizing large numbers of very different types of agents-from the simplest of microelectromechanical devices through intelligent robots to expert humans.
		Autonomous Helicopter (HELI) Develop a vision-guided robot helicopter
		Composable Autonomous Driving Behaviors Architecture This project aims to develop an architecture for autonomous driving behaviors software development and implementation with the following key features: modularity, configurability, instrumentability, and scalability.
		CyberATV We have developed two Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs) (by retrofitting two Polaris all-terrain vehicles (ATVs)
		Distributed Robotics Systems - CyberScout (CyberScout) Tactical surveillance collaborative robotics.
		Distributed Surveillance & Sensing Hierarchical, distributed, and active perception system
		Interactive Robot Programming We are developing human-machine interfaces to allow non-experts to interact in a human manner with robots.
		Real and Virtual Environment for Multiple Robots General-purpose framework to run and simulate multiple mobile robot systems
		Reliability of Mobile Robot Teams We are developing analytical methods for predicting mission failure probabilities for mobile robot teams given mission specifications and component reliability data.
		Self-Mobile Space Manipulator ((SM)2) A simple, independently mobile, modular, low mass, low cost robot for space station EVA.
		Tartan Racing Carnegie Mellon University is teaming with General Motors to compete in the 2007 DARPA Urban Challenge.
		Telesupervised Adaptive Ocean Sensor Fleet (TAOSF) We are developing a HAB Investigation Telesupervised Adaptive Sensor System (HABITASS) to address the limitations of existing systems.
		Transformer Winding Automation Increase the production speed and quality of transformer winding through sensing and automation
		Urban Challenge
		Wide Area Prospecting Using Supervised Autonomous Robots We are developing teams of telesupervised autonomous prospecting robots for the planned NASA Lunar and Martian colonies.
