		Alex Foessel PhD Student, RI Alumnus of RI.

Past Projects
		Atacama Desert Trek Robotic traversal of the Atacama Desert in Northern Chile
		Autonomous Rover Technologies (ART) Pursuing breakthroughs and insights into fundamental aspects of robot perception, navigation, position estimation, and integrated exploratory science from a robot.
		Lunar Rover Initiative (LRD) first interactive space exploration event
		Motion Free Scanning Radar We incorporate the current state of the art in non-mechanical scanning antenna technology with advanced millimeter-wave ranging technology to enable a small, reliable, and affordable imaging-radar sensor with no moving parts. Sensors will be demonstrated on the sponsor's equipment in typical operating scenarios and environments.
		Robotic Antarctic Meteorite Search (RAMS) Developing robots to search for meteorites in Antarctica, as an analog of a planetary exploration robot.
