Past Projects
		Ambler We are developing the Ambler, a six-legged walking robot that addresses the challenges of exploring rugged terrains, acquiring samples, and avoiding dangerous situations.
		Fractal Terrain Modeling he goal of our research in fractal terrain modeling is to build dense terrain maps that accurately represent natural surfaces
		Lunar Rover Initiative (LRD) first interactive space exploration event
		Robotic All Terrain Lunar Exploration Rover (Ratler) Ratler is a battery-powered, four-wheeled, skid-steered vehicle used as a testbed to develop the remote driving techniques needed for a lunar mission.
		Terrain Mapping We have developed an algorithm to build elevation maps from range images, accounting for the desired resolution and the current sensor orientation.
