Current Projects
		Cooperative Robotic Watercraft This project's vision is to have large numbers of very inexpensive airboats provide situational awareness and deliver critical emergency supplies to flood victims.
		Distributed SensorWebs The Sensor Web initiative develops and implements wireless technology for distributed sensing and actuation in horticultural enterprises.
		Hydroponic Automation We are developing inexpensive robotic approaches towards hydroponic growing, which can increase overall crop yield.
