• Schematic Design for MEMS - We have developed nodal simulation software to enable a structured representation for MEMS design using a hierarchical set of MEM components.
• Science Autonomy - The Science Autonomy project seeks to improve the accuracy and effectiveness of robotic planetary investigations by enabling automatic detection of relevant science features, classification of feature properties, and exploration planning that responds on-the-fly.
• Search and Rescue - Giving Urban Search and Rescue workers more technological tools to help find and save victims of natural disasters.
• Secure Agent Name Server - We are developing a secure agent name server which requires preregistration for deployment.
• Simultaneous Localization and Mapping - We are developing a geometric mapping strategy that directs a mobile robot to explore an unknown environment while taking into consideration sensor and encoder uncertainty.
• Snake Robot Design - Analyzing the factors that are of importance in designing a snake robot, and implementing new designs.
• Social Robots - We are developing robots with personality.
• Soft Tissue Simulation for Plastic Surgery
• Sonic Flashlight^TM - We are developing a method of medical visualization that merges real time ultrasound images with direct human vision.
• Spatio-Temporal Facial Expression Segmentation - A two-step approach temporally segment facial gestures from video sequences. It can register the rigid and non-rigid motion of the face.
• Stacking Planner - Generates plans for polyhedral sheet metal parts.
• Sweep Monitoring - NREC developed the Sweep Monitoring System (SMS) for training soldiers and demining personnel to use hand-held land mine detectors.
