Projects

We employ an underwater robot (ROV) and an autonomous surface vessel (ASV) for applications in smart oyster harvesting. Research entails localization, control and navigation strategies for these robots.

We employ arm manipulators equipped with different end effectors to autonomously disassembly end of life e-mobility vehicles. Research entails imitation learning, visio-servoing and impedence control.

We employ a legged robot for performing autonomous inspection of crop health in farms. Research entails mapless localization, autonomous navigation, machine learning. 

We study modeling and control of soft robotic systems. Specifically, we are interested in designing model-based controllers for soft robots to mitigate uncertainty and enable  precise motion tracking.
