Welcome to the NetBot
Laboratory at Texas A&M University
Our research focuses are distributed sensing, networked
telerobotics, robot vision,
and sensor/robot networks. We develop and
apply techniques drawn from modern
probability models, optimization theory,
computational geometry, and control theory
to problems in the domain of robotics and
automation. Our research has found
many applications including
natural environment observation, distance
learning, surveillance of public space,
building construction monitoring/archiving,
vehicle navigation, space exploration, and
manufacturing. We
approach research problems from both
theoretical and experimental
perspectives. We build mathematical
models, develop algorithms, and
validate them through both
simulations and physical
experiments. In other words, we
enjoy playing with math and building robots.
Our research has great societal impact and
attracted a great deal of
public and media attention. |
